How We Can Help
We provide all the necessary materials, labels, and instructions for preparing frozen, refrigerated, or ambient specimens for shipment to testing laboratories.
Whether you are shipping samples for storage or Versiti Clinical Trial Services is managing distribution of your samples around the world, we understand that no two couriers’ or countries’ shipping requirements are exactly the same. Weekends, holidays, weather and world events all make sample transportation a complicated and sometimes frustrating process.
We simplify global shipping, ensuring your samples arrive on time, intact, and compliant with local and international regulations.
Versiti Clinical Trials works closely with all couriers and shippers (Marken, World Courier, Ocasa, TNT, FedEx, DHL and UPS) to ensure your supplies and samples are shipped to your specifications. All shipments are monitored to ensure they arrive at the appropriate location, at the intended temperature and in the required timeframe.
To ensure high-quality results, our project managers work closely with study teams and sites throughout the sample collection, transport and data reporting processes. Custom-designed laboratory requisitions, kits and lab manuals help clinical sites accurately collect, process and ship clinical samples. Our staff is available 24 hours a day to answer any questions that arise during collection, processing and shipping of clinical samples. Someone is always available for troubleshooting/live support. Sites also enjoy ease of kit ordering and logistics made easy.
Federal regulations (49 CFR 100-185) mandate that sites transporting or shipping hazardous materials be subject to and comply with all provisions of the Federal Hazardous Materials Transportation Law. For additional information regarding these regulations, contact the Department of Transportation hotline at 800-467-4922.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) produces a manual based on the International Civilian Aviation Organization (ICAO) Technical Instructions, which outlines the procedures that must be followed to ensure safe transport. Training is an essential part of the process. It is necessary for all individuals involved in the preparation or transport of dangerous goods to be properly trained and tested, with follow-up training every two years. As per the regulations, each site is responsible for ensuring their staff is properly trained.
