Key Features

  • Dual-Pouch Design: Features a dedicated primary compartment for the specimen and a separate outer “kangaroo” pouch for lab requisitions, preventing paperwork from being contaminated or damaged by leaks.

  • Biohazard Compliance: Pre-printed with a highly visible universal biohazard icon and temperature handling checkboxes (Room Temp, Refrigerate, Freeze) to meet regulatory transport requirements.

  • Leak-Resistant Seal: The reliable zip-track closure provides a secure, recloseable seal that protects healthcare personnel and couriers from potential exposure to infectious materials.

  • Tear-Resistant Construction: Manufactured from heavy-duty polyethylene to resist punctures and ensure sample security during transport through pneumatic tube systems or courier services.

  • High Clarity: The transparent material allows for immediate visual inspection of the primary container without requiring the clinician to open the bag.

Clinical Applications

  • Internal Hospital Transport: Standardized method for moving samples from nursing stations to the onsite pathology department.

  • Outpatient Labs: Ideal for collecting and organizing multiple patient samples for daily courier pickup.

  • Pneumatic Tube Use: Durable construction allows for safe use in high-speed hospital air-tube systems.

⚠️ Usage Note: These bags are intended for secondary containment only. Ensure the primary specimen container (tube or cup) is capped tightly before insertion.

⚠️ Disposal: Dispose of used transport bags as biohazardous waste in accordance with facility and local regulations.

⚠️ Safety: Not intended for use with sharps or medical devices that may puncture the plastic; place such items in rigid sharps containers.
