Collection and Handling

在DACI实验室分析两种类型的试样:血清和环境表面或空气中的灰尘(仅限霉菌).

Serum: 所有抗体测试都需要人血清. Please note: not open on weekends.约翰霍普金斯大学DACI参考实验室收费表列出了每个单独测试的标本体积要求. In general, 0.每次血清学试验需要3毫升血清. 所要求的血清量用于重复分析试验,剩余部分用于重复分析,以确保试验准确性. All remaining specimens are stored up to 7 years; This permits the performance of repeat measurements or additional tests that can be performed if they are desired at a later date. 我们不要求将标本冷冻后放在干冰上隔夜送达. Rather, 我们要求将血清标本放在一个12 × 75毫米的塑料管中, frozen, and shipped in an IATA-approved packaging. 冷冻标本可在室温下在美国大陆内的邮件中发送.

For collection and processing of serum, 静脉穿刺取10毫升全血,送入不含抗凝剂的注射器或红顶或虎顶真空容器. 如果用注射器收集,将内容物转移到没有抗凝剂的玻璃或塑料管中. 接下来,让血液在室温下凝固1-2小时. Centrifuge and harvest the serum, 将细胞放入塑料(5ml) 12 × 75mm塑料试管中,并用塑料盖紧紧密封. If no centrifuge is available, 将试管冷藏一夜,这样白细胞和红细胞就会沉淀下来,然后小心地将血清转移到塑料管中. 塞紧管子,防止运输过程中血清流失. 在试管上贴上推荐十大正规网赌平台姓名、出生日期、采集日期和医生姓名. 如果血清要保存几天或超过一个周末, store it frozen until the time of shipping.
