Description
Rapidly and repeatedly chills biological samples for use in molecular biology applications such as ethanol precipitation of DNA/RNA samples. The Quick Chill unit can be used repeatedly for up to 45 minutes, eliminating the inconvenience of dry ice/alcohol baths. Durable polycarbonate and pre-filled with a non-toxic insulating solution. Holds twelve 0.2 to 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tubes. Theres no direct contact between the tubes and the insulating solution so labels and markings wont come off. Break-resistant, stackable design.
