Reduce Plate Tracking Errors — A Visual System for Your QC Program
CAP and CLIA inspections frequently flag disorganized bench workflow as a quality concern. ProRax provides a visible organizational standard: each color represents a defined category in your SOP. Any technologist walking up to the bench knows immediately what they're looking at — no guesswork, no wasted time.

FAQ — Lab Directors
How does a color-coded rack system map to CAP Microbiology Checklist requirements?
CAP requires documented specimen identification at every processing step. Assigning a specific color to each sample category in your SOP creates a visible audit trail at the bench. Contact Pro-Lab Direct for documentation guidance on ProRax in QC procedures.
Can we use ProRax in our existing SOPs?
Yes — ProRax racks are a passive organizational tool. Your SOP defines what each color represents. The racks themselves require no procedure validation beyond your standard equipment acceptance check.
Stop Hunting for Plates — Color-Code Your Bench in 5 Minutes
When a tech walks up mid-shift and can't instantly locate the right plate, that's lost time and a quality risk. ProRax makes the bench readable at a glance — color means something specific, so every technologist on every shift knows exactly where to look.
