Post Office Regulations

• Primary receptacle - specimens should be sent in a labelled primary watertight, leakproof container which should be wrapped in sufficient absorbent material to act as a buffer to absorb all fluid in case of breakage.
• A second durable, watertight, leakproof receptacle to enclose and protect the primary receptacle. Several wrapped primary receptacles may be placed in one secondary receptacle. Sufficient additional absorbent material must be used to cushion multiple primary receptacles.
• The secondary receptacle is placed in an outer package to protect it from physical damage and water whilst in transit.
• It must be clearly labelled "pathological specimen".
