Lab Specimens & Biologics

From planned routes to addressing last-minute, emergency testing needs or blood supply shortages, we keep your critical shipments moving. 

When Results Depend on Delivery

Your supply chain doesn’t just move packages—it moves critical data, diagnostics, and patient outcomes.

Whether it's a routine lab specimen, a time-sensitive biologic therapy, or a research sample under strict environmental control, any delay or misstep can compromise results. That’s why labs, CROs, and biotech organizations rely on American Expediting for high-touch, highly accountable transport across complex pickup and delivery networks.

CASE STUDY

Supporting Critical Research with Temperature-Sensitive Shipments 

Northern Biomedical Research depends on precise, time-sensitive logistics to support its work in surgery, clinical pathology, and sample management. Many of their high-value research shipments require dry ice or liquid nitrogen temperature conditions—along with strict documentation, chain of custody, and delivery tracking. Whether scheduled in advance or requested with just a few hours’ notice, American Expediting delivers with reliability, visibility, and care.
