Applications and Experiments for the Test Tube Rack
A test tube rack keeps tubes upright while reagents are added, reactions are watched and samples wait for the next step, which reduces spills and breakage. It is basic equipment for CBSE/NCERT Class 6–12 chemistry and biology practicals, B.Sc. labs and laboratory-technician or nursing training.
- Class 10 chemistry: holding tubes during tests for acids, bases and salts.
- Class 11–12 salt analysis: keeping a series of test tubes in order.
- Biology practicals: standing sample tubes while tests for starch, sugar or protein develop.
- Draining washed tubes upside down using the drainage holes.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Stand for Cylinders is supplied as a single rack with 12 positions, as described above. Test tubes and measuring tubes are separate items and can be quoted together with the rack.
