Services

Every link in the sample chain

From classification to proof of delivery — take one service or the full chain.

Category A Infectious Substances

UN 2814 / UN 2900 shipments with PI 620 packaging, certified shippers, and lane-specific dangerous goods handling.

Category B Biological Substances

UN 3373 diagnostic and clinical specimens in PI 650 triple packaging — the workhorse of biosample logistics.

Temperature-Controlled Transport

Ambient, 2–8 °C, −20 °C, −80 °C, and LN2 cryogenic lanes with data-logger monitoring and reports.

Dry Ice Shipments

UN 1845 refrigeration with PI 954 packing, quantity planning, and replenishment for long lanes.

Compliant Packaging

UN-certified outer packaging, 95 kPa secondary containers, absorbents, and labels — assembled correctly every time.

Next Flight Out & Onboard Courier

Urgent, high-value loads on the next available flight — with hand-carry onboard couriers where legally permitted.

Permits & Regulatory Support

Export permits, ethics approvals, import authorizations, and MTA coordination — prepared and tracked for you.

Customs & Cross-Border Support

Declarations, valuation and document preparation, and broker coordination so samples clear without delay.

Clinical Trial Logistics

Site-to-lab and lab-to-lab specimen moves aligned with protocol windows, IATA rules, and study documentation.

Chain-of-Custody Collection

Documented collection for legal DNA, workplace screening, and forensic-scope samples — sealed, signed, tracked.

Kit Procurement & Management

We source the destination laboratory's own kits, store them correctly, and bring them to the collection.

Multi-Site Collection Coordination

Clinics, ports, offices, and study sites across cities — one coordinator, one consolidated schedule.

Temperature control

Five lanes, one accountable operator

Your samples stay inside their window with the right packaging, coolants, and monitoring for the whole route.

Industries

Eleven sectors, one logistics desk

Different regulations, different laboratories — the same disciplined process.

Pharma & Biotech

Stability, clinical, and QC sample moves between plants, CROs, and central laboratories.

CROs & Clinical Trials

Protocol-aligned pickups, site replenishment kits, and specimen transfers that respect study windows.

Universities & Research

MTA-covered research material transfers between institutions, with ethics paperwork handled.

Hospitals & Diagnostic Labs

Reference-lab referrals, second-opinion slides, and routine diagnostic specimen routing.

Maritime & Crew

Port-side crew drug & alcohol testing and seafarer medical samples — chain-of-custody intact, OCIMF/ISM-aware.

Immigration & Legal DNA

Family-reunification DNA collections shipped to AABB/ISO-accredited laboratories, per embassy requirements.

Workplace & Employee Screening

Drug & alcohol and occupational health programs across sites — urine, hair, and oral fluid, custody documented.

Sports & Anti-Doping

Doping-control urine and blood samples to WADA-accredited laboratories abroad — sealed, documented, on time. Athlete panels collected at home by our Omega Care team.

Food Safety & Agriculture

Export-analysis samples to ISO 17025 laboratories — short stability windows, cold chain respected.

Veterinary & Animal Health

Rabies titer and pet-travel testing, CITES-scope material, and animal-health specimen logistics.

Individual Senders

Direct-to-consumer genetics, second-opinion tests, and one-off personal submissions — guided end to end.

How it works

Six steps from request to delivered

A documented, traceable process for every shipment.

UN 3373 · UN 2814 · UN 2900 · UN 1845

Your samples stay inside their window with the right packaging, coolants, and monitoring for the whole route.

Knowledge base

Shipping biology, explained

Plain-language guides to the rules that govern biological sample transport.

Food Export Analysis: Shipping Samples That Certificates Depend On

An export certificate is only as good as the laboratory result behind it — and the result is only as good as the sample that arrived.

Maritime Crew Drug & Alcohol Testing: Custody at the Berth

OCIMF vetting and charter clauses make crew testing a documentary discipline — from the gangway to the accredited laboratory.

Rabies Titer Tests and Pet Travel: Shipping the Sample That Moves the Pet

EU pet travel rules make the rabies antibody titer a gate — and the blood sample has to reach an EU-approved laboratory in time.

FAQ

Common questions

What kinds of samples do you ship?

Human, animal, and food-origin samples: blood, saliva and buccal swabs, DNA/RNA extracts, tissue, cells, urine, food test portions, and veterinary specimens — as Category B (UN 3373), Category A (UN 2814/2900), dry ice (UN 1845), or exempt human/animal specimens.

How long does a shipment take?

Express lanes typically deliver door-to-door in 2–5 business days once permits are in place. Permit lead times vary by country and sample type — we give you a realistic timeline in the quote, not a promise we cannot keep.

Do you handle the permits and customs paperwork?

Yes. We prepare and track export documentation from Türkiye, coordinate destination import requirements (including CDC/USDA/CITES-scope materials), and prepare customs declarations so your sample crosses without surprises.
