DNA SHIPMENT

• For speedy and secure delivery, international courier services, for example DHL, UPS and FedEx, are recommended; alternatively, you can send samples by air mail as a small parcel. 

• Since high quality DNA samples are stable, there is no need for shipment on dry or wet ice.
  Care should be taken to avoid drying out; please use either screw cap tubes or wrap the caps of each Eppendorf tube with parafilm. 

• In order to avoid damage to the tubes during shipment, a tube storage box made of plastic or cardboard, and doubling it with a padded envelope, is recommended. Please avoid using round containers, such as 50 ml Corning tubes, for tube protection. 

• Send samples to the following address:
         Asper Biotech
         Oru 3
         Tartu 51014
         Estonia
         Ph: +372 7 441 556 

• Please fill in the DNA sample submission form, which improves and accelerates the handling of DNA samples submitted to Asper and include it in the package as you ship samples. Download the form in Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat (pdf) format. 

• Notify us by email (info@asperbio.com, or the respective project manager), including the number of samples, which test is to be performed, and shipment tracking data).

• Enclose in the package the list of samples, which test is to be performed and DNA quality data.
