Patient samples
Transporting patient samples from global clinical sites to central testing and specialty labs has challenges. Often classified as UN3373 Category B, biological samples require the appropriate labels and packaging as well as customs regulations expertise. Patient samples that need to be tested for biomarkers are also time- and temperature-sensitive. We can create account numbers by protocol or sponsor while delivering end-to-end temperature-monitoring to ensure the integrity of samples are never compromised and all samples are allocated to the correct trial.
Reagent transport
Bringing a drug to market successfully often takes several years and millions of dollars in investments. That’s why a well-designed, dependable supply chain is critical from the very start. From early research and development to pre-clinical safety testing, our logistics experts are uniquely qualified to safeguard the integrity of your reagents as we move them to and from bioanalytic labs, manufacturing facilities and testing sites around the world.
