FAQ

What are the sample size requirements?
  • CDPHE requires both a “test” sample and a “retain” sample, each sufficient to conduct the required analyses.
  • Murray-Brown Laboratories requests you provide two (2) homogeneous containers - one for analysis and the other to be retained for 90 days.
  • The minimum sample size per container is 65 g.
How should I prepare and ship my sample?
  • Sample should represent real-world product as received by the end customer and/or be homogeneous with the batch it represents.
  • Packaging should maintain sample integrity by preventing exchange with the atmosphere.
  • Ship next day or 2nd day, avoid Saturdays and weekends.
  • If your product is normally refrigerated, pack with cold packs.
  • Non-refrigerated products can be shipped without cold packs.
  • Please do not use Dry Ice and do not freeze samples
