Specimen Preparation, Storage/Transport Temperature:
Keep sample as ambient whole blood for delivery to our lab within 24 hours of collection. If delivery cannot occur within 24 hours, separate plasma/serum from cells within 24 hours of collection. Freeze two 0.5mL plasma/serum aliquots immediately at -20°C or lower. Separated plasma/serum samples must be sent with enough dry ice to maintain a frozen state until received in our lab.
The lab operates Mon-Fri, 8:00am to 5:00pm (EST). Testing is not performed and samples cannot be received on weekends/certain holidays. First Overnight shipping is strongly recommended. Please call/fax (513-636-4685/513-636-3861) the tracking number so we may better track your specimen.
