Procedure for pouring off samples if shipments will be extremely delayed

26 Feb, 2019 | Return|

As winter weather continues to move through parts of the US, we would like to remind you it may be necessary to aliquot your purple top EDTA sample if samples will not arrive at a CTS laboratory within 70 hours of collection.

You can check out the Pour Off Tube Requirements here by selecting the Reference tab: At-A-Glance

If you have any questions about this process after reviewing the requirements, please contact ctscustomerservice@mycts.org.
