Overview
PCR Cooler Product Highlights:
- Modern design cools faster in freezers and stays cold longer on the bench top
- Maintains the entire 96-well plate at a temperature of 0 °C for over an hour
- Maintains sample temperature of less than 5°C for up to three hours (with lid off)
- When the temperature ceiling of 6°C has been exceeded, users are signaled by a contrasting color change of the cooler, or a single well
- Cools industry standard format PCR® tubes, strips and single format as well as most 96 well plates, in both standard and low profile well shape
- Patented lid design provides seamless storage and transport by securely covering the PCR® samples from the freezer to the bench top
- Innovative lid slides out, rotates 180°, and becomes a convenient stand the cooler sits on
Product Applications:
PCR Chiller for thermosensitive applications, PCR®, or cell-based assays, as well as gentle sample thawing and stopping of reactions. The PCR Chiller also provides a dependable cooling station for pipetting and sample storage. Perfect for transporting samples and reactions between preparation, thermal cycling and post-PCR® procedure areas.
Features and Benefits:
- Modern patented design cools faster in freezers and stays cold longer on the bench top
- PCR® Cooler maintains a sample temperature of 0 °C (with 2 hours pre-cooling at -20 °C) for over an hour
- When the temperature ceiling of 6 °C has been exceeded, users are signaled by a contrasting color change of the cooler, or even a single well
- Cools industry standard format 0.2 mL and 0.5 mL PCR® tubes, strips and single format, as well as most 96 well plates, in both standard and low profile well shape
- Two color contrasting options available, purple to pink or dark blue to light blue allowing easy monitoring of samples
- Better alternative then ice baths as dry incubation reduces the risk of contamination
- Freeze cooler in an upright position enabling cold storage of tubes
- Well design prohibits the freezing of samples
- Fully sealed and sonic welded cooler keeps coolant contained offering worry free usage
- Save space with compact footprint and stacking ability
- Ergonomic textured finger grips provide a secure hold, reducing the chance of dropping the PCR® Cooler, and makes handling and transportation easy, especially when using gloves
- Vented lid enables faster cooling of samples while in freezer
- Lid doubles as a stand, when used as a stand the space between the cooler and bench top enables the cooler to stay cold longer as there is no conductive heat transfer
- Lid is ambidextrous; it can be switched to accommodate left or right-hand orientation and is detachable
- Alphanumeric well identification for quick location and retrieval of tubes
- 96 well 8x12 configuration
- Robust cooler made from engineered polypropylene and the lid is made from polycarbonate
- US Patent Pending, Community Design No: 004101756-0001-0002
- Two Year Warranty
