ABSTRACT:
A tube holder for resilient plastic test tubes, and corresponding method for using the same, comprising a plurality of plates, each of which has openings that are substantially aligned with the openings in the other plates. One of the plates is moveable in a lateral direction with respect to the other plates so that when the tubes are inserted in the openings and the plate is moved in the lateral direction, the walls of the moveable plate forming the openings exert force against their corresponding tubes to press the tubes against the walls of the other plates that form the openings in those plates to thus secure the tubes in the openings. The moveable plate can be also be released from applying the force against the tubes to allow the tubes to move essentially freely in the openings. Because the bottoms of the tubes are unobstructed, the tubes can be inserted directly into openings of another device corresponding to the openings in the plates.
