[Histonet] shipping tissues

[Jackie M O'Connor]

Yes, they CAN ship in formalin (how do they get their formalin - it's 
shipped).  It just cannot go by air because of the hazardous nature.  It 
has to go via ground transportation.  I wouldn't advise a transfer to 
saline -

[Histonet] shipping tissues






We are having some tissue samples shipped to us from another lab.
They've said they can't ship in formalin, so they would fix the tissues,
then ship them in a saline solution. Is this okay? It would be shipped
overnight.  I've never had tissue sent in.
