MacroTubes® 5 mL Tube Racks
Manufacturer: MTC Bio
The MTC Bio MacroTubes® Rack is a specialized benchtop storage solution designed to bring rigid organization to your mid-volume liquid handling workflows. Engineered specifically to accommodate the unique dimensions of 5 mL MacroTubes® and similar 5 mL microcentrifuge tubes, this rack eliminates the hassle of trying to balance these specialized vessels in oversized 15mL racks or cramped traditional microtube stations. Featuring a smart two-tiered profile, the rack provides maximum structural stability, holding each tube perfectly vertical to prevent sample cross-contamination or accidental cap popping. The tiered geometry also elevates the rear row slightly, ensuring full label visibility and effortless access to all 16 slots simultaneously while maintaining a remarkably compact benchtop footprint.
Description
Key Functional Benefits:
- Two-Tiered Ergonomics: The dual-level design ensures that tubes in the back row are never obstructed by tubes in the front row, allowing for quick, single-handed aspiration and cell pellet resuspension.
- Rock-Solid Benchtop Stability: The wide base and precise slot tolerances stop top-heavy, fluid-filled 5 mL tubes from wobbling or tipping over when opening snap-caps or twisting screw-caps.
- Space-Saving Efficiency: Optimizes precious workspace inside laminar flow hoods, biological safety cabinets, and cleanrooms by arranging 16 sample slots into a highly condensed horizontal layout.
Laboratory Bench Strategy:
- Optimizing Hood Workflows: When utilizing this rack inside a sterile cell culture hood, place it centrally to allow the clean laminar air to flow uniformly around the two tiers. This minimizes air turbulence around open tube caps.
- Row Segregation: Use the front tier for your active sample reactions and the rear tier for your negative controls or stock buffers. This physical separation helps prevent pipetting sequence errors during high-stress assays.
- Vessel Versatility: While custom-tailored for MTC Bio 5mL MacroTubes, the slot diameters are also perfectly proportioned to hold standard 5 mL conical bottom and round-bottom tubes securely.
