When a spontaneous miscarriage occurs at home the miscarriage material should be put in a sterile container (for example a container for urine) and kept in a saline solution at 4°C until dispatched (do not freeze!). A container with the sample should be sent to the Cytogenetic Laboratory of the Medical Genetics Department by expedited post, in ambient temperature.

The PCR test for sex determination is also possible in paraffin block.
