How to use RNA Sample Rack Position Map

  1. 1Type a RNA sample label, then click an empty position in the 5×5 rack to place it.
  2. 2Click a filled position to free it up when the sample is used or moved.
  3. 3Export the map to CSV to print a box sheet or share the layout with the lab.

Why use RNA Sample Rack Position Map?

  • Find any RNA sample fast: a visual 5×5 rack map means no more digging through a frosted box and warming everything up.
  • Tracks free vs. used positions so you know capacity at −80 °C before you walk to the cold room — and exports the map to CSV for sharing.
  • Runs offline in the browser; sample labels and positions never leave your device, which suits transcriptomics labs handling confidential material.

Frequently asked questions

How does the rack position map work?+

It draws an interactive 5×5 rack grid. Enter a label for the RNA sample, click an empty position to fill it, and click a filled position to clear it. A live counter shows used and free positions, and you can export the whole map to CSV — all in your browser, with the layout saved locally between visits.

Why map a freezer box instead of using a list?+

Because retrieval time and freeze-thaw damage are real costs. A visual map of RNA samples lets you walk straight to the right position, minimising how long the box sits out of −80 °C. It also reveals free slots at a glance so you stop over-filling boxes.

Is the box layout saved?+

Yes — it is stored in your browser's localStorage, so the map is still there next time you open the tool on the same device. Nothing is uploaded; export to CSV when you want a printable box sheet or a backup.

Can I use it for different freezer formats?+

This variant is sized as a 5×5 rack, which fits common −80 °C storage for RNA samples. For a different format, use the matching box, rack, tower or fridge map in this collection — together they cover the standard cryostorage layouts.
