3. Label specimen as bone marrow.

Specimen Stability: Ambient (preferred) 7 days/Refrigerate 7 days

Additional Information: To ensure minimum volume and concentration of DNA are met, the requested volume must be submitted. Testing may be canceled if DNA requirements are inadequate.

 

Specimen Type: Extracted DNA from whole blood or bone marrow

Container/Tube: 1.5- to 2-mL screw-top tube

Specimen Volume: Entire specimen

Collection Instructions:

1. DNA must be extracted from blood or bone marrow within 7 days of collection.

2. Label specimen as extracted DNA and source of specimen

3. Provide volume and concentration of the DNA

Specimen Stability Information: Frozen (preferred)/Refrigerate/Ambient

Additional Information:

1. Specimens are preferred to be received within 1 year after DNA extraction.

2. DNA must be extracted in a CLIA-certified laboratory or equivalent and must be extracted from a specimen type listed as acceptable for this test (including applicable anticoagulants). We cannot guarantee that all extraction methods are compatible with this test. If testing fails, one repeat will be attempted, and if unsuccessful, the test will be reported as failed and a charge will be applied.
