we currently use a form called Pactrak and then place it into the LMS 
system for tracking when things go out of our lab. these go usually to 
outlying areas. When specimens are brought to the lab we have paperwork 
that we call transmittal sheets. They have to be signed off by the person 
that receives them and then again verified once it goes to the lab.

Apart from Dr. Kiernan's recommendation, you can try putting your 
mounted slides in fixative for a few minutes, we've found this to work 
with gelatin-only coated slides, or chrome-alum gelatin subbed slides 
with thick brain sections.  If you're trying to rescue material already 
on slides, dip briefly in warm 1% gelatin, air dry, fix for a few 
minutes in 10% NBF, and proceed to counterstaining.

I'm curious what methods other labs are using to track specimens that 
couriers pick up from clinic locations to ensure safe delivery to the lab. 
We currently utilize a logbook at the clinic site that the courier signs 
when they take the specimen but I have heard there are barcoded systems 
available out there as well. What works? What doesn't?  Appreciate your 
feedback!
