May update – important information concerning the handling of Diabact UBT kits in UK

Analytical laboratory

Up until the 30^th April 2013 all Diabact UBT kits delivered in UK have been analyzed by the Glasgow Royal Infirmary (GRI).

Since the 1^st May, Analysis Services International Ltd (ASI), situated in London, perform the patient samples analysis in UK.

Subsequently, all patient samples should be sent to ASI, using the free post address label for ASI or the following address:

Analytical Services International Ltd
St George’s – University of London
Cranmer Terrace
London
SW17 0RE

 

Address labels

Diabact UBT kits currently on the market may still have a patient test form and a freepost address label for GRI.

If you have existing kits with GRI labels, please contact TPS (wholesaler) on the following address or phone, so new freepost address labels for ASI can be delivered to you.

TPS
27-35 Napier place
Wardpark North
Cumbernauld
G68 OLL

Tel + 44(0)1236 739668’

 

Kibion will secure that patient samples that arrive to GRI after the 1^st May will, on a daily basis, be picked-up and re-directed to ASI.

This arrangement will of course prolong the time for the test results to be communicated back to the Doctors Surgeries. If you wish to minimize the delay, send the patient samples directly to ASI.

Please note that all Diabact UBT kits delivered from the TPS warehouse after the 6^th May will have a new patient test form and freepost address label, stating the address to ASI.

Test results

Test results on samples already sent to GRI will be sent out to Doctors surgeries by normal postal services. Please note that test results cannot be received through on-line services.

Test results from ASI will initially only be sent out to Doctors surgeries by normal postal services. In the very near future test results will be retrievable through an updated and secure on-line report service.

General information

A new distributor for Diabact UBT in UK will be appointed during May 2013. More information will follow.

Information regarding Diabact UBT analysis, laboratory patient sample analysis and on line reporting services will be communicated via Kibion web site (kibion.com) and direct communication to customers.
