SNAP test cycling and shipping guidelines
*These tests can be stored at room temperature, which can eliminate the need for cycling—refer to the SNAP test package insert or idexx.com for details.
Cycling is the optional process of removing the product from the refrigerator, allowing it to
equilibrate to room temperature for 30 minutes–8 hours, and then returning the product to the
refrigerator.
IMPORTANT: When cycling, keep the SNAP tests in their foil package and the conjugate bottled.
To learn more about your SNAP test, including appropriate storage temperatures and how to
achieve optimal performance, refer to the SNAP test package insert.

As part of our development process, we perform stability studies, including heat stress
testing, to ensure that our tests can withstand reasonable shipping stress.
In our heat stress testing process, we measure the performance of test components over time
after exposure to various temperatures. On this basis, we ship our diagnostic tests as follows:
• Tests shipped at ambient temperature: SNAP 4Dx Plus, SNAP Heartworm RT,
SNAP FIV/FeLV Combo, SNAP Giardia, SNAP Parvo, SNAP cPL, and SNAP Foal IgG. These
tests must be received within 48 hours of shipment. Store tests appropriately immediately
upon receipt.
• Tests shipped on ice (48 hours): SNAP fPL and SNAP Feline proBNP. These tests must
arrive within 48 hours of shipment. Store tests appropriately immediately upon receipt.
• Tests shipped on ice (24 hours): SNAP Feline Triple, SNAP FeLV Antigen, and
SNAP Lepto. These tests must arrive cold within 24 hours of shipment. Store tests
appropriately immediately upon receipt.
