VWR Tube Rotator

Our project is looking into the binding sites and signaling pathways of specific transcription factors in murine germinal center B cells. To accomplish this, we use chromatin immunoprecipitation kits to target and pull down our genes of interest. One essential step in the protocol for these kits, as with countless other types of experiments, is several hour/overnight rotation at various temperatures. The long-overdue failure of our decades-old rotator necessitated a replacement, which led to the purchase of the VWR 10136-084. This rotator comes with a low pricepoint and a very simple, no frills design. This model can fit basic needs and includes interchangeable racks to hold standard 1.5, 15, and 50mL tubes, but offers only a single rotation speed. It continues for function properly after 100+ hours use at 4-degrees Celsius as well as room temperature.
