Temperature and Humidity Validation
 |
In conjunction with our partners “Sensitech” our temperature monitoring systems provide highly accurate information for dispute resolution and accept/reject decisions. This ensures that your pharmaceuticals and other temperature-sensitive products are not compromised in the supply chain. Through comprehensive audits and analysis programs, we provide an accurate picture of the treatment of your goods in transit. This ensures that you have complete control over your highly valuable, perishable products. |

In addition to timely pick-up and delivery of specimens back to laboratories, CitySprint Medical Express can supply your collaborator sites with shipping documentation plus the required packaging and labelling necessary to ensure the safe transportation of blood and other samples.
