A tube roller turns closed tubes on their side while tilting them slightly, so the contents mix end to end without the foaming or splashing that vigorous shaking can cause. Laboratories use it to keep blood and other samples uniformly mixed before analysis, to hold cell or particle suspensions evenly dispersed, and to dissolve or blend reagents in bottles over long periods. Because operation is continuous, tubes can be left rolling while other work goes on.
Lay tubes across the rollers so they are supported along their length, keep caps tight, and start at a low speed before raising it to the level the sample tolerates. Keeping the total load within 4 kg and the room within 5 – 40 °C protects the motor. The compact 450 × 260 mm footprint makes this a practical piece of lab equipment for research groups with limited bench space.
This tube roller is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which operates under the ScienceLab brand in Ambala, Haryana. The company sources it for university departments, industrial labs, hospital laboratories and dealers in India and international markets, and can quote it together with tubes, racks and centrifuges.
