A shipping container for safely maintaining contents at stabilized temperature during transit has a first insert arranged to be removably, frictionally fit between opposed side walls and formed to accommodate vials and provides storage space for packaged coolant and bottles in selected arrangement, a second insert arranged for frictional engagement with opposed side walls and formed to accommodate bottles and access formations in the side walls engaged by the first insert to permit ready removal.

Shipping container

A process for the analysis of organic pollutants from an aqueous sample is provided including injecting an extraction solvent under pressure in the form of a plurality of substantially uniform droplets into the sample containing one or more pollutants. The solvent droplets are collected and then analyzed for the presence of the pollutants. The apparatus includes a sample holding column, a solvent reservoir, a source of gas under pressure, and a nozzle having one or more outlet ports which subdivides the solvent into small uniform droplets to enhance mass transfer of pollutants from the sample into the solvent.

Method for the analysis of organic pollutants

A controlled temperature shipping assembly is disclosed which comprises a container, a plurality of liquid retention members and temperature control means. The container includes both an outer protective layer and an inner insulating layer. The outer protective layer and the insulating layer define a shipping cavity containing the liquid retention members and the temperature control means. The liquid retention members are removably positioned in the shipping cavity such that at least one surface of each of the liquid retention members is in direct contact with at least one surface of the temperature control means. The temperature control means are positioned in the shipping cavity such that the temperature of each of the liquid retention members can be controlled below predetermined levels.
