Shipping Specimens 

For effective transport of specimens we suggest that labeled blood/serum/urine tubes be wrapped with absorbent parking (e.g., dri-lok pads) or inserted into rigid plastic container.  Please wrap the specimen vials with the requisition form.  The plastic container should be placed into the corrugated cardboard box provided for shipping.  Please do not submit  non-frozen samples with frozen samples in the same requisition.    The airbills preaddressed to Medical Assay Laboratory will be provided with the collection supplies along with shipping materials.  Contact Airborne Express at (800) 247-2676 and tell them you need same day pick-up for next day delivery.  If you are shipping on a Friday, Please be sure to indicate a “SATURDAY” delivery on the airbill.
