Transportation of Clinical Specimens
All specimens must be labeled appropriately and placed in a ziploc bio-hazard bag to prevent risk of leaking or external contamination. Be sure that specimens are collected in leak-proof containers and the lids are securely tightened. The requisition must be attached to or placed in a separate pouch of the transport bag. Specimens with needles are not acceptable.
