4. Shake the tube vigorously to mix the sample and the extraction buffer

STEP THREE: Return the sample for testing

1. Place the collection tube into a plastic bag with an absorbent pad and place the bag into a mailing envelope.
2. Seal the envelope, add postage, and mail it to your doctor or laboratory.
