TEST TUBE RACKS

Test tube racks 

In any laboratory, proper organisation and handling of test tubes is essential to ensure efficient and safe work. Test tube racks are essential tools for keeping samples tidy, preventing spillage and facilitating access to tubes during experiments.

At Pobel, we have a wide range of options designed to meet the needs of laboratories across all disciplines. Whether you are looking for a solution for temporary storage or disposal of test tubes during an experimental procedure, our tube racks ensure safety and convenience.

What are test tube racks?

Test tube racks are structures designed to hold and organise test tubes vertically, providing a stable and secure support. These tools are essential in laboratories that handle multiple samples simultaneously, as they allow safe handling and easy access to each tube.

Made of different materials such as plastic or aluminium, racks are designed to accommodate various sizes of test tubes, keeping them organised and preventing them from falling or spilling their contents.

Types of test tube racks

There are several types of test tube racks, designed for different applications in the laboratory:

• Plastic racks: lightweight, inexpensive and easy to clean, plastic racks are ideal for laboratories handling large numbers of samples or looking for an economical solution for temporary tube storage.
• Metal racks: Stronger than plastic, these racks are suitable for laboratories requiring robust and durable solutions, especially when tubes contain reagents or aggressive chemicals.
• Universal racks: these adjustable options can accommodate different sizes of test tubes, offering a versatile solution for laboratories with varying needs.

Uses of test tube racks

Test tube racks have a wide variety of applications in the laboratory, including:

• • Sample organisation: racks allow samples to be kept organised during analysis, avoiding mix-ups or accidents. By holding the tubes in a stable manner, rapid identification of each sample is facilitated.
  • Handling during experiments: racks keep tubes upright, which is crucial in experiments that require the addition of reagents or heating of samples without the risk of spillage.
  • Temporary storage: Test tube racks offer an ideal solution for temporarily storing tubes while testing, keeping them organised and accessible to lab technicians.

Advantages of using test tube racks

Opting for test tube racks offers numerous advantages in the laboratory environment:

• • Safety: racks prevent tubes from accidentally tipping over or breaking, protecting both samples and laboratory personnel.
  • Efficiency: Keeping all tubes organised and close at hand improves the efficiency of sample handling during experimental procedures.
  • Versatility: available in different sizes and materials, the racks can be adapted to the specific needs of each laboratory, providing a flexible and practical solution.
