MCT Twin Rack (Product Code: SLE/CH/69) is a two-sided rack for microcentrifuge tubes (MCTs): one face holds 0.5 ml tubes and the other holds 1.5 ml tubes, with 108 holes on each side.

It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, for molecular biology, biotechnology and clinical teaching labs that source from a lab plastic ware supplier in India, and for international markets.

During DNA extraction, enzyme digests or sample aliquoting, tubes move constantly between the bench, a laboratory centrifuge and the freezer. Keeping them in an indexed rack means each sample has a recorded address — for example a row letter and column number — so nothing is mixed up when the lids all look the same. When the day’s work switches from 1.5 ml tubes to smaller 0.5 ml tubes, simply turn the rack over instead of reaching for a second rack.
With the transparent top in place, tubes can be checked for labels and volumes without being lifted out, and they stay covered while waiting for the next step. Note the index position of each sample in the lab notebook before loading, and keep the rack level when moving it so open tubes do not spill.
