KDL Pathology will provide convenient collection supplies (pre-printed custom requisitions, shipping containers, pre-filled specimen bottles, specimen bags) and arrange for specimen transport to the laboratory, all at no charge.

Specimens should be packed according to federal guidelines including placement in sealed plastic bag, enclosed in a crush-resistant container along with absorbent material (gauze, foam sponge, or paper towel) and shipped at the appropriate temperature.
