Blood Specimen Rotator
Product Code : LSK-CL-11274
Blood Specimen Rotator (SKU LSK-CL-11274) is a tube rotator that rocks and turns up to 22 blood collection tubes around a horizontal axis at 5 to 30 rpm, designed to mix each sample thoroughly and to prevent clotting in the tubes. A timer sets the length of each run. It suits haematology work in medical laboratory technology training. Science Lab Supplies handles quotations for the rotator from Ambala, India, for institutes, laboratories, tender contractors and distributors.

Applications and Experiments for the Blood Specimen Rotator
The rotator keeps blood collection tubes in slow, continuous motion so that the sample stays mixed before it is tested or aliquoted. It fits haematology practicals in DMLT, B.Sc. MLT and other medical laboratory technology programmes, and can be quoted as clinical laboratory equipment alongside tubes and analysers.
- MLT haematology practicals: mixing tubes before a cell count or haemoglobin estimation.
- Keeping up to 22 tubes in motion while a batch waits for analysis.
- Timed mixing runs set on the built-in timer.
- Training in safe blood handling: wearing Gloves W/o Powder Nitrile Disposable and discarding waste in a Biohazard Bag.
Treat every blood sample as potentially infectious: keep tubes capped, wear gloves, and clean any spill on the rotator under your laboratory's biosafety procedure.
Standard Scope of Supply
The rotator is supplied as one unit with positions for 22 tubes of 10–16 mm diameter, its speed control and timer, ready for 100–240 V mains. Blood collection tubes, gloves and waste bags are separate consumables that can be listed on the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations are prepared for one rotator or for several units to equip a group of haematology benches. Science Lab Supplies sets out packing, delivery time and price for the quantity you name, and collection tubes or a tourniquet can be quoted with the rotator on the same document.
Science Lab Supplies has an Importer-Exporter Code, so it can ship to buyers in Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa and Qatar. A quotation request can be sent from the contact page or built up in the enquiry cart, while tender buyers can start from the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many tubes does the rotator hold?
It takes 22 tubes with diameters from 10 to 16 mm, covering tube volumes from 1.5 ml to 15 ml. Check the diameter of the tubes you use before ordering so that they seat correctly.
What speeds and motion does it use?
The speed control runs from 5 to 30 rpm, and the motion combines rocking with rotation around a horizontal axis. A built-in timer sets the length of each mixing run.
What is the rotator meant to do?
Its intended use is thorough mixing of blood collection tubes and preventing clotting in them. Mixing is the only job it performs; testing is carried out afterwards on a cell counter, analyser or other instrument.
Who supplies the Blood Specimen Rotator?
Quotations for the rotator come from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, which works with institutes, laboratories, tender contractors and distributors and can price blood collection tubes, gloves and racks alongside it.
