Shipping Instructions

Shipments should follow these guidelines:

  • Tissue samples should be placed in a screw top container inside a plastic sealed bag.
  • Containers should be packed tightly so they do not move.
  • Do not ship glass containers.
  • Shipments should contain sufficient quantity of absorbent material (e.g., blue pads, paper towels) to absorb the contents of the shipment in case of leakage.
  • Please submit paperwork in a separate plastic bag in the event the container leaks thereby ensuring the paperwork remains dry.
  • Only solutions, which contain greater than 25% formaldehyde, are regulated by DOT when shipping biological samples.
  • Please call AML Laboratories to notify us of a pending shipment if a confirmation email was not received.
  • Please send ice packs with paraffin blocks during the summer months to prevent the blocks from melting.
  • AML Laboratories must be notified prior to sending frozen tissues and then will give a date when samples should be sent.
  • IMPORTANT! AML Laboratories is NOT responsible for carrier damages, errors, and/or non-deliveries. Please make sure to indicate on your "Work Request" form the value of which you wish to insure your completed order.
