Transport Temperature
Special Instructions: Submit one specimen per test requested. Specify the exact specimen source/origin (eg, genital lesion). Indicate a specific test number on the request form. Check expiration date of transport; do not use expired devices. Specimen: Vesicular fluid, ulcerated lesions, pharyngeal and throat swabs, urine, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), autopsy and biopsy material, eye exudates, and vaginal swabs Specimen Containers: Swab in viral transport medium, 1 mL fluid, 0.5 g tissue in transport medium Container: Viral, Chlamydia, or Mycoplasma culture transport provided by LabCorp, or other appropriate transport medium (for swabs); body fluids and tissue samples may be submitted in viral transport media or in a sterile leakproof container. Collection: Specimen is best collected within the first three days following the appearance of a lesion but no more than seven days. After collection, remove the cap from the transport medium tube, and insert the swab aseptically into the transport tube and break the swab shaft. Replace the cap so that the swab will not interfere with closure and allow the tube to leak. Label the tube with patient identification and transport specimen to the laboratory at 4°C. Storage Instructions: Refrigerated Cause for Rejection: Bacterial swab specimen; specimen received in grossly leaking transport container; dry specimen; specimen submitted in fixative or additive; specimen received in expired transport media or incorrect transport devices; inappropriate specimen transport conditions; specimen received after prolonged delay in transport (usually more than 72 hours); specimen stored or transported at room temperature; wooden shaft swab in transport device; calcium alginate swab; unlabeled specimen or name discrepancy between specimen and request label.
