- Samples should be sent using a specified service on the highlighted days so that they are received at the laboratory within a specified time.
- If samples have been taken and the recommendation is not to post then samples should be frozen and sent to us on the next highlighted posting day preferably with freezer packs/blocks to ensure they remain frozen.
- If samples are sent out-with the recommended dates they will not be able to be stored correctly once they are in transit/arrive at the laboratory.
