New Rack Significantly Increases Automated Sample Storage Capacity

The new 138-2 High Density (HD) Rack from Micronic accommodates 138 individual 0.75ml internally threaded or externally threaded (hybrid) tubes or 0.80ml externally threaded tubes in an automation compatible ANSI/SLAS dimensional footprint.

Designed to be extremely compatible with automated processes, the Micronic HD Rack side walls are closed for easy gripping with most robotic arms. Using a unique open bottom design, which permits tubes to be manipulated by robotic systems, avoids time-consuming procedures. The rack contains twist-lock to be effective when twist-lock tubes are used. 

The 138-2 HD storage rack is manufactured from virgin Polycarbonate. Racks made from this material have excellent properties for low temperature conditions which make them ideal for long-term use in automated cryogenic storage facilities. Micronic ensure the material used to manufacture the racks is selected on quality and the highest purity levels. An extremely robust design minimises deformation due to temperature changes.

Micronic labware is produced in certified class-7 clean rooms at facilities in both the Netherlands and the United States. The high density racks are therefore free from any detectable RNase/DNase and pyrogens. The 138-2 HD Rack is available as empty rack or prefilled with the 0.75ml internally or externally threaded (hybrid) tube or the 0.80ml externally threaded tube.
