Cold Temperature Shipping

Sample quality and the ability to obtain reliable laboratory results can be negatively affected by extreme cold temperatures. Therefore, increased protection from extreme cold is critical when packaging samples this time of year. Be sure all samples that require shipment at ambient temperature – especially blood, bone marrow and CellSearch samples – are packaged with a room temperature gel pack.

If you need gel pack or other specimen collection or packing supplies, contact a client service specialist at 800.932.2943, or submit a client supply request form.
