Chemistry sample collection & shipping

Comprehensive information on procedures for sample collection, detailed instructions on the packaging and shipping process, and additional details for blood and urine chemistry tests.

Sample Requirements - Icon

Sample Requirements

Separated serum is preferred for most assays.

EDTA plasma, LH plasma, urine, and CSF are possible for various assays.

Collection Instructions - Icons

Collection Instructions

Single analyte ~40 μL, standard panels between 50-270 μL.

Short volume and customized dilution strategies are also available.

Sample Storage - Icon

Sample Storage

Most specimens require storage at 2-8°C if shipping within 24 hours of collection though some analytes should be maintained frozen.

If stored longer than 24 hours, freeze samples in transport tubes.

Shipping - Icon

Shipping

Ship samples on cold packs or dry ice as required based on requested tests and sample age.

Turnaround Time - Icon

Turnaround Time

Most standard assays are reported within 3 business days.

Additional Information - Icon

Additional Information

Dilution strategies are possible. Please consult with your account manager.

A comprehensive suite of chemistry tests for your research needs
