LK Packaging 15 x 17 Lab-Loc® Tamper-Evident 3-Wall Specimen Bags with Adhesive Closure 2 Mil

LK Packaging 15 x 17 Lab-Loc® Tamper-Evident 3-Wall Specimen Bags with Adhesive Closure for Large Specimens

LK Packaging 15 x 17 Lab-Loc® Tamper-Evident 3-Wall Specimen Bags with Adhesive Closure provide large-format tamper-evident containment for anatomical pathology specimens, bulk multi-tube panel sets, 24-hour urine collection jugs, and oversized clinical containers requiring chain-of-custody documentation. Manufactured from 2 mil polyethylene with a 3-wall construction featuring a separate document pocket, these bags display LK Packaging biohazard identification and three temperature condition checkboxes. The adhesive closure seals on first application and provides visible tamper indication upon opening. The 15 x 17 inch format is the largest standard size in the LABAC adhesive closure line, accommodating containers that exceed the capacity of 6 x 10 or 10 x 10 bags while maintaining the complete chain-of-custody and temperature instruction system of the LABAC series.

Large-Format Adhesive Closure Applications in Anatomical Pathology

Anatomical pathology departments receiving formalin-fixed tissue specimens in wide-body containers, large biopsy jars, and multi-piece resection specimens require bag formats that accommodate irregular, bulky containers without compromising the tamper-evident seal. The 15 x 17 adhesive closure bag allows pathology staff to bag large tissue containers, apply the adhesive seal, and place the sealed bag in a secondary rigid transport container for courier delivery to the pathology lab. The document pocket holds the surgical pathology requisition, gross specimen description, and tissue type labels clearly visible to pathology receiving staff, eliminating the need to search through multiple documents to identify the incoming specimen.

15 x 17 Inch Dimensions for Extra-Large Specimen Containers

The 15 x 17 inch format provides 255 square inches of specimen compartment space, accommodating wide-mouth specimen jars up to 14 inches tall when laid on their side, large urine collection jugs for 24-hour analyte testing, bulk swab collection kits for environmental monitoring programs, and combined blood culture bottle sets for multi-site bacteremia investigations. The 2 mil construction withstands the weight of full 3-liter urine jugs and multiple-bottle culture sets during courier transit without adhesive seam failure. The full 15-inch-width adhesive closure creates a complete seal even with bulky contents that may push against the closure area from the inside.

Pre-Transplant and Organ Procurement Specimen Transport With Large Adhesive Bags

Pre-transplant tissue typing, HLA matching, and organ compatibility testing panels require handling of large-volume blood draws and tissue samples needing chain-of-custody documentation from procurement site to the histocompatibility laboratory. The 15 x 17 LABAC adhesive closure bag accommodates the multi-tube HLA typing blood collection sets and tissue samples that require transit in secondary containment with documented chain-of-custody for regulatory compliance. Organ procurement organizations (OPOs) and transplant centers can use the temperature checkbox system to mark cryopreserved or refrigerated tissue samples for appropriate courier temperature management during transit.

Do LABAC Adhesive Closure Bags Work With Standard Lab Receiving Intake?

Yes. Lab-Loc® Tamper-Evident Adhesive Closure bags follow standard intake procedures for tamper-evident specimen bags. Receiving staff verify the seal is intact, check the temperature condition box is marked, and note the LABAC format on the accession record before opening the bag for specimen processing. Standard LIS barcode label scanning can be performed on labels applied to the bag exterior without removing the specimen from the bag. The 3-wall document pocket allows requisition retrieval without disturbing the specimen compartment area.
