The laboratory will receive routine test samples between 8:00am to 17:00pm. Samples for post-prandial blood glucose tests (two hours after a meal) and stool samples will be accepted from 20:00pm to 21:00pm.

For tests that are sent abroad, samples will be collected on Sundays and Wednesdays from 9:00am to 11:00am. On other days, excluding Fridays, sample collection will take place from 8:00am to 10:00am.
