KIT ASSEMBLY DIRECTIONS
BEFORE PACKING THE BLOOD SPECIMENS: Freeze TWO (2) of the gel packs OVERNIGHT. They should be laid flat and frozen solid. If outside daytime temperatures exceed 50 degrees Fahrenheit: REFRIGERATE the remaining TWO (2) gel packs OR If outside daytime temperatures are below 50 degrees Fahrenheit: allow the remaining TWO (2) gel packs to reach room temperature (68-73 degrees Fahrenheit) Blood specimen vials should be kept in the absorbent-lined plastic shipping tubes after blood draw (see picture below). Place blood specimens in the FRONT of a refrigerator until just before shipping time.
WHEN READY TO SHIP: STEP 1: Depending on the outside temp (see notes above these pictures), place one REFRIGERATED or ROOM TEMP gel pack in the small 7 x 5 x 4 vial carton.	STEP 2: Put the absorbent-lined tubes on top of the REFRIGERATED or ROOM TEMP gel pack.	STEP 3: Place the remaining UNFROZEN gel pack on top. The specimens should now be sandwiched between the two UNFROZEN gel packs.
STEP 4: Place a FROZEN gel pack in the bottom of the insulated shipper.	STEP 5: Place the closed small 7 x 5 x 4 vial carton on top of the FROZEN gel pack.	STEP 6: Place the remaining FROZEN gel pack on top of the small vial carton.
