PACKAGING AND TRANSPORT
DANGEROUS GOODS
The shipment of infectious substances (such as patient's specimens with known pathogens or cultures) or other "dangerous goods"
(such as certain chemicals) is subject to local, national, and international laws and regulations (or individual airlines
requirements).
The person(s) preparing the "dangerous goods" for shipping is/are responsible for ensuring that the package, when shipped, meets
the requirements of all applicable laws (including any training requirements).
The technical information presented in this manual is not intended to be, and should not be considered as, regulatory training in
the handling of "dangerous goods." Any questions you may have about requirements for shipping infectious substances or other
dangerous goods should be directed to appropriate consultants, counsel, or your appropriate regulatory authorities.
Specimens that are transported by air must be packaged according to IATA Packing Instruction
650. For a complete description of all requirements to prepare and transport safely a consignment
of specimens, please consult the current year’s Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) published
each year by the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Among the requirements:

The packaging must be of good quality capable of passing a 1.2m drop test and
must consist of three components:
A primary receptacle containing the specimen,
A secondary packaging, and
An outer packaging with suitable cushioning material.
Either the primary or secondary receptacle must be capable of withstanding an
internal pressure producing a pressure differential of not less than 95kPa for
liquids.

The package must be marked “UN3373 Biological Substance Category B.”
IATA Note: Specimens shipped with carbon dioxide, solid (dry ice), or liquid nitrogen must
comply with the provisions of the DGR applicable to those substances in addition to the
requirements of Packing Instruction 650.
Quest Diagnostics Clinical Trials purchases packaging materials from vendors who comply with
the IATA 650 Packaging requirements, and we offer the packaging with applicable instructions to
be IATA 650 compliant. It is imperative that sites use the 650 packaging supplied (and
according to packing instructions) to ship their specimens, as failure to do so may result in a
package being denied for transport and/or the shipper being fined.

DHL – SERVICE GUIDE COLLECTIONS AND FROZEN DRY ICE
Ordering Dry ice:
If dry-ice is not sourced locally, DHL will provide dry ice & packaging upon request. Please fill
out a “DHL Clinical Trials Frozen Shipper Request Form” and fax, phone or email DHL (refer to
cut of times on SSI page and contacts provided on the form). Refer to the days and times
indicated on the “DHL Clinical Trials Frozen Shipper Request Form”.
You will receive a fax confirmation for any orders placed using the Frozen Shipper Request Form
or an email confirmation for orders placed using the DHL email address. If a confirmation is not
received please follow up with DHL to ensure that the order has been placed. It is the site’s
responsibility to ensure they receive the confirmation and to follow up with DHL if required.
A DHL courier will deliver dry ice to site on the requested date. However, this courier will not be
able to collect the samples at time of delivery. A call to DHL’s customer service team is required
for a collection of your repackaged shipment.
The dry ice that you receive from DHL will usually be in ‘pellet’ form. However, if you receive
dry ice on a Monday, or your site operates from a remote location then you may receive dry ice in
‘plate’ configuration. You will receive instructions appropriate to this type of dry ice with your
consignment.
The bag in contact with the dry-ice must absolutely be a 95kPa transport bag, IATA compliant.
This will be supplied by DHL along with the dry-ice and packaging.
Always replace the entirety of received dry-ice in the shipper box, never remove dry-ice if you
consider there is not enough place for samples. If such situation should occur, order a new frozen
shipper box.
DHL Service:



The cut-off times provided by DHL are designed to ensure connectivity of your shipment
through their network. As such, they must be rigidly adhered to.
Due to delivery commitments for other customers, the courier will be unable to deliver the
dry ice and wait for the samples to be repackaged. Collection of the samples must be booked
via the standard collection procedure.
The DHL couriers are not allowed to repackage the samples on behalf of the Investigator.
DHL will not come at a specific time within the cut off schedule provided. A collection
window of up to two hours from ‘ready time’ to ‘close time’ may be requested.
DHL will only deliver the dry ice container to the recognised central receipt point in a large
medical facility.
