DEBAMED® – “ADR-compliant transport of samples and COVID-19 tests”
Biological samples that pose a potential hazard to humans and/or animals must be packed with all due diligence before being transported to the relevant laboratory. This packaging must comply with various packaging laws and requirements. Most aspects are covered by the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR). For example, the Robert Koch Institute states that if a clinical sample is suspected to contain SARS-CoV-2 pathogens, it is to be classed as a “biological substance, category B” under UN 3373 and must be packaged in accordance with packaging instruction P650.
In our DEBAMED® webcast, we’ll be taking a closer look at regulatory compliance when packaging and transporting infectious substances, including COVID-19 tests, and answering any specific questions you may have on the topic.

Duration: 11 am – 12 noon (time zone Berlin)
Registration fee: free of charge
