Globe Scientific PCR Cold Work Racks, SBS/ISBER Footprint, 96-Well, Color-Change 4°C Indicator — 1 Rack/Pack The Globe Scientific PCR Cold Work Rack keeps reactions chilled at the bench without ice, holding samples near 4°C during PCR setup, plate loading, and enzymatic prep. Its SBS/ISBER footprint fits standard 96-well PCR plates and strip tubes, while a built-in color-change indicator signals when the rack is cold and ready to use. Technical Specifications Product Type PCR Cold Work Rack Volume/Size 96-well; SBS / ISBER footprint Material Thermochromic polymer housing with cooling core Closure/Cap Open-top rack format for plates and strips Working Temperature Maintains samples near 4°C Indicator Color-change when cold (Green→Yellow or Purple→Pink) Sterility Non-sterile Pack Size 1 rack per pack Available Colors Green (Green to Yellow) PCR-COLDYSBS $133.00 Purple (Purple to Pink) PCR-COLDPSBS $133.00 Applications Holding PCR and qPCR plates at 4°C during reaction assembly Chilling 0.2 mL strip tubes while pipetting master mix Preserving heat-sensitive enzymes and probes during setup Maintaining cDNA synthesis and reverse-transcription reactions cold Supporting NGS library prep workflows away from the ice bucket Bench staging of samples between thermal cycler runs Quality & Procurement Order from labsupplies.com, an authorized Globe Scientific dealer shipping from US inventory. Each rack ships with lot numbers that support traceability for CAP-, CLIA-, and ISO 15189-accredited laboratories. Frequently Asked Questions How long does the rack stay cold? After freezing the cooling core per the included instructions, the rack maintains samples near 4°C for hours at the bench, eliminating the need for melting ice during PCR setup. What does the color change indicate? The thermochromic housing changes color when chilled — Green to Yellow or Purple to Pink — giving a clear visual cue that the rack is at working temperature and ready for use. Will it fit my PCR plates and strips? Yes. The SBS/ISBER footprint accepts standard 96-well PCR plates and 0.2 mL strip tubes, matching common thermal cyclers and automation decks. Is the rack reusable? Yes. The rack is designed for repeated freeze-and-use cycles, providing consistent cooling performance across many runs without consumable ice. { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Product", "name": "PCR Cold Work Rack, SBS/ISBER Footprint, 96-Well, Color-Change 4°C", "brand": { "@type": "Brand", "name": "Globe Scientific" }, "offers": [ { "@type": "Offer", "sku": "PCR-COLDYSBS", "price": "133.00", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock" }, { "@type": "Offer", "sku": "PCR-COLDPSBS", "price": "133.00", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock" } ] } { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "How long does the rack stay cold?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "After freezing the cooling core per the included instructions, the rack maintains samples near 4°C for hours at the bench, eliminating the need for melting ice during PCR setup." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What does the color change indicate?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The thermochromic housing changes color when chilled — Green to Yellow or Purple to Pink — giving a clear visual cue that the rack is at working temperature and ready for use." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Will it fit my PCR plates and strips?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes.
