ALab™ MX-RD-E Economical Tube Rotator
Product Detail
ALab™ MX-RD-E Economical Tube Rotator offers effective, affordable mixing: it provides a gentle but effective mixing of biological samples in 1.5 mL to 50 mL micro tubes, with an adjustable speed range from 0 to 80 rpm controlled by a scale and continuous operation.

Laboratory tube rotators are ideal for biochemistry, molecular biology and clinical applications. The MX-RD-E is used in a variety of applications including immune precipitations, prevention of blood coagulation, latex diagnostics, etc. A DC motor drives the rotation at 0–80 rpm, and plastic clips for 50 mL, 15 mL and 1.5 mL tubes are used with the MX-RL-E/MX-RD-E disk/rotisserie accessory.
