CPC Tips for submitting specimens in warmer weather: Please maintain specimens indoors for as long as possible. For specimens not preserved in formalin and placed in an outside lock box until pickup, please package with frozen freezer packs and protect with a thermal pouch. Try to place in the box as late in the day as possible, especially if the CPC lock box is located in direct sunlight. If you need a thermal pouch, CPC can provide you with one - you can call the lab directly at 847-996-1030.
