- Tubes can be selected from any position in the rack.
- Removes the need for manual contact with tubes reducing the risk of heat transfer to frozen samples and cross contamination.
- Ideal for use with Azenta sample storage tubes and compatible with sample storage tubes from most other manufacturers.

Manual Tube Decapper:
