Infectious Sample Transport: Evaluating the Use of Parafilm for Sealing Primary Containers

Clockwise application of Parafilm may decrease leakage in the event of cross-threading. Despite this, receptacles must be opened in the correct containment, as spillage during unwrapping and lid removal is common. Further investigation is required to assess the effects of pressure on modes of transport such as air travel.

Abstract

Clockwise application of Parafilm may decrease leakage in the event of cross-threading. Despite this, receptacles must be opened in the correct containment, as spillage during unwrapping and lid removal is common. Further investigation is required to assess the effects of pressure on modes of transport such as air travel.
