PCR Tube Storage Box (96-Well)

# PCR Tube Storage Box (96-Well)

ZHCLAB PCR Tube Storage Boxes provide organized, protective storage solutions for molecular biology workflows. Designed to accommodate 96 individual 0.2mL PCR tubes or twelve 8-strip PCR tubes, these storage boxes support efficient sample management across research, clinical, and diagnostic laboratory applications.

## Key Features

Versatile Storage Configurations
Available in two formats: standard laboratory storage boxes with yellow bases for routine benchtop and cold storage applications, and portable boxes with secure locking lids and white bases for sample transport and field work. Both formats maintain the industry-standard 96-well grid layout (8 rows x 12 columns).

Secure Sample Protection
Standard boxes feature snap-fit clear lids that provide reliable sealing for benchtop, refrigerator, and freezer storage. Portable boxes incorporate secure locking lid mechanisms that prevent accidental opening during transport, shipping, or field sample collection.

Durable Polypropylene Construction
Manufactured from high-quality polypropylene with chemical resistance to common laboratory reagents including alcohols, mild acids, and bases. Clear lids enable instant sample visibility and fill-status verification without opening. Rigid construction prevents tube crushing during storage and handling.

Optimized Grid Layout
96-well grid format maintains standard microplate configuration for organized sample management. Compatible with both individual 0.2mL PCR tubes and 8-strip PCR tube formats, supporting flexible workflow requirements.

Temperature Performance
Suitable for storage across the full laboratory temperature range from -80deg C to room temperature. Polypropylene material withstands freezer storage without cracking or warping. Safe for long-term sample archiving in refrigerated and frozen conditions.

Space-Efficient Organization
Stackable design maximizes storage capacity in freezers, refrigerators, and benchtop work areas. Uniform footprint enables organized arrangement of multiple boxes for systematic sample inventory management.

Sample Identification Features
Flat lid surface accepts adhesive labels and permanent marker notation for sample tracking and identification. Transparent lid design allows quick visual inspection of tube contents, fill status, and cap colors without opening the box.

## Care & Maintenance

Clean empty boxes with mild laboratory detergent and water, or wipe with 70% ethanol or isopropanol for decontamination. Boxes can be autoclaved when empty for sterilization (121deg C for 20 minutes). Avoid harsh solvents such as acetone or chlorinated compounds that may damage polypropylene.
