Hey Chris, The Orange man strikes again! I have heard from a lot of customers having trouble getting things into the country, but this is the first I have heard about new challenges exporting. Here is to hoping it gets cleared up soon. For the negative urine and oral fluid, a few questions to quote. Urine • Do you want liquid form with sodium azide, 14 month EXP and refrigerated storage. Of frozen form with no preservative, 24 month EXP and frozen storage? • How many liters would you use in a year ball park? • Target price per liter? Oral fluid • How many liters would you use in a year ball park? • Target price per liter?

Thanks for the email. So after the Trump administration put the Fentanyl tariff on China, the government in China decided that we were no longer allowed to ship/import QC materials that contained any prohibited substances into China. (We have been shipping QC materials there for about 10 years now) We had a shipment of about 8k worth of BCD urine controls confiscated and destroyed at the port in China. Super great times. Since then, our team in China has been purchasing standards from the local China distributor of Cerriliant and mixing their own QC materials in China. We are always in the market for Negative Urine and Negative Oral Fluid matrix. I recall we discussed this before, but your prices might have been a bit on the high side. Perhaps quote me those and let me know. Other than that, just livin in California. Will you go to Medica this year? Thanks Chris
