Barcode Label Development and Printing
GO2 Lab Media can develop barcoded cryogenic labels and other customized labels in various barcode formats and label sizes. After reviewing a project plan or protocol, we offer suggestions to improve control over study tubes and forms. Patient-specific barcode systems can be created by using randomized numbers or by using pre-assigned numbers generated from our clients' information management system. GO2 Lab Media is also capable of producing aliquot-specific labels to be used for pharmacokinetic studies and other projects that require the generation of timed multiple splits. Based on specific customer requirements, GO2 Lab Media can either pre-apply the cryogenic labels to the tubes at time of kit assembly, or include them in the kit for the site coordinator to apply at time of specimen collection.
