ABSTRACT:
A blood sampling kit having a plurality of glass vials for receiving blood therein; a puncture pin for puncturing the skin of the subject to be tested; an alcohol swab for cleansing the area to be punctured, and an envelope for returning the specimen to the laboratory. The specimen receiving kit further comprises a quantity of clay like material for sealing the ends of the blood vials after the blood sample has been received therein, so that blood is not lost during transit. The system provides that the test subject would receive the kit containing the above-referenced items to prick one finger, place blood into the plurality of blood-receiving vials, close off the end of the vials with a quantity of clay plug; return the vials to the kit, reseal the blood kit, noting the personal identification number, and placing the kit in an envelope provided for returning to the laboratory for testing. Of course, following testing, the subject is notified of the results of the test simply through his or her personal identification number. Therefore, the system is anonymous, and can be undertaken through the mail without personal appearances at the laboratory.
