Microbiology and pathology laboratories performing diagnostic tests on stool or respiratory specimens should handle potential SARS-CoV specimens using standard Biosafety Level (BSL)-2 work practices in a Class II biological safety cabinet. (cdc.gov)
To begin with the "Pathology referral form registration" wizard need modifications so that it is possible to register a specimen as a FutureSpecimen (this is a suggestion). (lu.se)
The "Pathology referral form registration" wizard has been updated to allow the user to choose if a NoSpecimen or a FutureSpecimen item should be created if no specimen tubes exits. (lu.se)
Tissue3
Until more information about the transmission of SARS-CoV in the laboratory setting is known, precautions should be taken in handling specimens (e.g., respiratory and stool specimens, unfixed lung tissue, viral cultures) that might contain large quantities of SARS-CoV. (cdc.gov)
The estrogen receptor status of breast carcinoma can be determined by immunocytochemical staining of tissue specimens or of aspirates. (bccancer.bc.ca)
Staining may also be performed on fixed tissue blocks, but the results may not be as accurate depending upon the fixative used and on delay in fixation of the specimen. (bccancer.bc.ca)
Surfaces1
After specimens are processed, decontaminate work surfaces and equipment. (cdc.gov)
Decades2
Specimens in museum collections, some of them collected many decades ago, are intended to last forever . (pugetsound.edu)
PtP Spanco Inc., a leader in material handling solutions and worker safety for more than four decades, is pleased to announce the launch of the Workmate™ Electric Chain Hoist. (pr.com)
Support1
Further development is needed to support importing from Specimen or Case. (lu.se)
Environments2
The easy-to-use six-axis HC30PL human-collaborative robot facilitates safe and efficient fenceless palletizing, and can also be deployed in select handling, packaging and logistical applications of demanding production environments. (pr.com)
One risk of these water stores is that improperly handled containers become favourable environments for the eggs, larvae and pupae of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, resulting in an increase of new adult mosquito populations. (biomedcentral.com)
Work1
Started to work on an import wizard for external specimen. (lu.se)
Large1
Where the specimen is very large, acceptable alternative methods of sampling and blocking can be found in guidelines from the Royal College of Pathologists. (bccancer.bc.ca)
Care2
Follow manufacturer's recommendations for use-dilution (i.e., concentration), contact time, and care in handling. (cdc.gov)
Handle wings with the same care you exercise in handling skins, but be especially careful in not sliding wings across a surface or otherwise jeopardizing the integrity of the feather tips. (pugetsound.edu)
Time1
Handle skins one at a time and carefully . (pugetsound.edu)
Similar1
This should handle the use case where we send an existing specimen tube to the external lab which is more similar to a "Re-extract from specimen" action than a completely new specimen. (lu.se)
Staff1
If any of the specimens has a loose or floppy neck or leg, please inform a staff person. (pugetsound.edu)
Fact Sheets1
Search our extensive Laboratory Test Directory to find test codes, ordering recommendations, specimen stability information, Test Fact Sheets, and more. (aruplab.com)
Gloves1
Sometimes when you open cassettes, small specimens can stick to either your gloves or your fingers and you don't even realize it. (utsouthwestern.edu)
Viral2
Until more information about the transmission of SARS-CoV in the laboratory setting is known, precautions should be taken in handling specimens (e.g., respiratory and stool specimens, unfixed lung tissue, viral cultures) that might contain large quantities of SARS-CoV. (cdc.gov)
The test has also been validated for both dry-swab specimen collection and for collection using viral transport media to facilitate easier collection and transportation. (aruplab.com)
Guidance1
Per CDC guidance, specimens can be shipped as UN 3373 Biological Substance, Category B. When submitting a specimen with a suspected or confirmed monkeypox infection, clients should write "suspected monkeypox" on the ARUP packing list, specimen bag, and in the lab information system (LIS) order comments. (aruplab.com)
Precautions2
Clinical laboratories performing routine hematology, urinalysis, and clinical chemistry studies, and microbiology laboratories performing diagnostic tests on serum, blood, or urine specimens should follow standard laboratory practices, including Universal Precautions, when handling potential SARS-CoV specimens. (cdc.gov)
This will help ensure that specimens are handled and tested using proper precautions. (aruplab.com)
Laboratories3
Although routine clinical laboratories around the world have processed an estimated several thousand diagnostic specimens from patients with SARS, no cases of SARS-CoV disease among laboratory workers performing diagnostic assays have been reported to date. (cdc.gov)
Final packaging of specimens for transport to diagnostic laboratories for additional testing. (cdc.gov)
This is especially important in North America where no regulations exist to govern the manufacturer of instruments for veterinary laboratory testing (or laboratories testing animal specimens). (vin.com)
Instrumentation1
ARUP's test is based on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) assay but has been optimized for state-of-the-art instrumentation and has an automated specimen extraction process. (aruplab.com)
Laboratory2
Effective and timely communication between clinical and laboratory staff is essential to minimize the risk incurred in handling specimens from patients with possible SARS-CoV disease. (cdc.gov)
Such specimens should be labeled accordingly, and the laboratory should be alerted to ensure proper specimen handling. (cdc.gov)
Type1
Biosafety guidelines for handling SARS-CoV specimens, by specimen type, are provided below. (cdc.gov)
Blood1
A clinical specimen (blood, secreta, tissue, tissue fluid) known to contain a Risk Group I agent or not known to contain, or suspected to contain, a pathogen from Risk Group II, III, IV or a Biological Substance, Category B in which the pathogen has been neutralized or inactivated to it cannot cause a disease when exposure to it occurs.

On Behalf Of kristen arvidson Sent: Thursday, March 17, 2011 12:50 PM To: histonet Subject: [Histonet] small derm specimen handling Hello All, Just wondering how you all treat your small derm specimens as not to lose them in processing. (utsouthwestern.edu)
Open2
Any procedure with the potential to generate fine-particulate aerosols (e.g., vortexing or sonication of specimens in an open tube) should be performed in a biological safety cabinet (BSC). (cdc.gov)
They have to latch tightly, or they can open during processing and you will lose specimens. (utsouthwestern.edu)
Small1
A single Kyanite crystal makes up this small thumbnail specimen. (galleries.com)
Patients1
specimens known to originate from patients with a Risk Group II or II pathogen should be shipped as Biological Substances. (uchealth.org)
Determine the temperature at which the specimen must be maintained during transport, using instructions for individual tests listed in the Test Catalog. (uchealth.org)
Equipment1
After specimens are processed, decontaminate work surfaces and equipment. (cdc.gov)
