Is there anything special I need to know about shipping a meconium sample?
Meconium testing is most commonly performed on a STAT basis. Therefore, the sample must be couriered (if in the Greater Houston Metropolitan Area) or sent via overnight, early morning delivery. Immediate handling of the specimen is critical to the care of the newborn. ExperTox takes extra steps when working with meconium samples, immediately faxing the test results to the ordering agency with a follow-up call to ensure the results were received.
