Kit Component Quantity a Storage Condition<br />
Solution A (fixative) b 250 ml (10 - 25 ml) Room temperature<br />
Solution B (anticoagulant) 30 ml 4 °C<br />

a. Sufficient materials are provided to collect 60 blood samples. Enough fixative is included to fix each sample in duplicate. (Duplicate<br />
(backup) samples are an important precaution against shipping problems.)<br />
b. Warning! Methanol. Flammable liquid and vapor. Toxic. See MSDS.<br />
c. It is important to save the insulated shipping box in which the kit was received. This insulated box should be used for shipping fixed<br />
blood samples to Litron. When filled to capacity with dry ice, this container is designed to ensure that 50 – 60 fixed samples will<br />
remain sufficiently cold for 48–72 hours, which is sometimes necessary due to shipping delays.<br />
Additional Materials Required<br />
• –75 to –85 °C freezer (a chest freezer is preferred)<br />
• 4 °C refrigerator<br />
• Micropipet (20–1000 µl)<br />
• Standard pipet tips<br />
First-Time Users<br />
• Microcentrifuge tubes<br />
• Dry ice for shipment of samples<br />
• Shipping forms for overnight delivery service<br />
• Blood collection supplies<br />
We recommend reading the entire instruction manual before performing these<br />
procedures. First-time users of this kit should perform the following steps on five to<br />
ten test samples to practice fixing and shipping the blood samples to Litron.<br />
Please do not deviate from the procedures described in this manual. It is important that<br />
these steps are followed exactly using the reagents supplied with this kit in order to<br />
achieve accurate results. If you have questions, please contact Litron Laboratories by<br />
calling (585) 442-0930, faxing us at (585) 442-0934, or sending an email to<br />
info@litronlabs.com.<br />
Before analysis can be<br />
initiated, a Protocol<br />
Acceptance Form (see<br />
Materials Provided, page 2)<br />
must be filled out and<br />
returned to Litron<br />
Laboratories, preferably with<br />
the fixed blood samples.
