Walkabout™ Trays

Transportability. You’re free to Walk About.

Things happen when you take your samples,

reagents, or cells out of their warm incubating

environment and place them onto a cold surface.

Why not keep them at temperature while you are

setting up your experiment at the bench, under the

hood, or while traveling between labs, or where ever

you go. Your Walkabout Tray makes a great travel

partner. It’s a quarter the size of a traditional lab

bucket. This makes it easy to use under the hood

or in tight benchtop spaces. With its superior

insulative properties, it keeps your samples and

reagents at temperature after removing them from

the Bead Bath, Chill Bucket, or the refrigerator.

The Walkabout can maintain a 5 ml liquid sample at 37 ºC ±1.3

ºC for 30 minutes after removing it from the water bath, whereas

a sample placed in a standard rack will reach RT (25ºC) in same

time. Pre-warmed beads (37ºC) were scooped out of the Bead Bath

and into the Walkabout. From the same Bead Bath, a 15 ml conical

tube containing 5 ml of sample (water) was removed and added to

either the Walkabout containing beads or to a standard test tube

rack.The sample temperature was monitored over time. Data repre-

sent temperature measurements recorded by a single temperature

probe. Values represent ±S.E. (n=3).
