I have a DHL waybill, how do I arrange the pickup?

You need to call DHL at least 24 hours prior to your required pick up. Note if samples are being sent on a Monday DHL must be called the Friday before. 

Call DHL on 0344 248  0012 (for Ireland 1870 0700 or 1816 2000) to arrange collection of the samples. 

Please give DHL your DHL waybill number, which can be found between the top barcodes, and confirm that they have your correct address contact details. 

A copy of the instructions are included in the test kit.

I have an EasySampler Stool Collection kit, how do I prepare and mount the EasySampler?

Remember to urinate before mounting the EasySampler to the toilet

      a. Lift the toilet seats.

      b. Clean and dry the rims of the toilet bowl with toilet paper so that the EasySampler can be mounted on to a clean and dry surface.

      c. Unfold the Easy Sampler

      d. Remove the two tape protections from the EasySampler and mount them on the back of the bowl

                              ⚠ The EasySampler must not touch the surface of the water

      e. Remove the remaining tape protection and mount the front part of the EasySampler at each side in mid position of the bowl, leaving space to dispose of toilet paper in front of EasySampler

      f. Once secured, put down the toilet seat. EasySampler is now ready for use

      g. Have a bowel movement. 

                             ⚠ Make sure the stool does not come into contact with the toilet water or urine
