For example, tubes labeled Ctrl, Cntrl, C, Cont. etc. are not considered adequately labeled. Do not cover, overlap, or obscure the “CONTROL” label with secondary stickers. The full word must always remain 100% visible. Complete an ARUP requisition and submit with patient's specimen and control specimen room temp. Send with daily Apollo courier pick up.
