LAB3219
Collect
Serum separator tube. Also acceptable: Lt. blue (sodium citrate), green (sodium or lithium heparin) or lavender (EDTA).
Specimen Preparation
Separate serum from cells ASAP or within 2 hours of collection. Transfer 0.5 mL serum to an ARUP Standard Transport Tube. (Min: 0.5 mL)
Unacceptable Conditions
Specimens containing particulate material.
Storage/Transport Temperature
Refrigerated.
Stability (from collection to initiation)
After separation from cells: Ambient: Unacceptable; Refrigerated: 1 week; Frozen: Indefinitely (avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles)
Notes
If HTLV I/II screen is repeatedly reactive, then HTLV I/II Confirmation by Western Blot will be added. Additional charges apply.
