Doctors who suspect that these diseases may be present can download the requisition form and consent form from www.mody.no or at the bottom of this page, and send these to us together with 7 ml EDTA-blood (4 ml accepted for children) and 4 ml serum (preferably pipetted).

It is important that the test tubes are sent in containers that can be sealed to prevent leakage during transport. The jars labeled with the date, patient's name and ID number. Remember yellow sticky note with suspected contamination with blood. The shipment can go first class mail, but avoid shipments over weekend. Express post is unnecessary.
