This typically happens in the US when any label is left on the Dewar that implies it contains liquid nitrogen, i.e. the green diamond label or any indication of previous hazardous shipment. The synchrotron sometimes ships them back wet (and adds these labels) There are special shipment rules and

SSLR always returns your dewars containing liquid nitrogen and with hazardous liquid nitrogen stickers on the dewars. If you are shipping the dewar dry, you should not need the stickers. If you do not take the stickers off before re-shipping them, the dewar is likely to be returned. We had this i

Not sure if this helps. We ship proteins with dry ice. The dry ice label has lines for Shipper and Recipient (Consignee) addresses which are often not filled out. We had one package returned for not filling them out. Also check your bill. FedEx charge the return. --Chun From: C

Dear All, Apologies for the slightly off-topic, but I was wondering if anybody knew of a paper/textbook where a protein model was built by multiple people (ranging from novice to experienced builders) and compared. I believe the conclusion was that while the overall trace was broadly correct, expe

Hello All, General inquiry here, I have been sending dewars out to synchrotrons for many years now and all of a sudden we have run into them being returned due to incomplete paper work or hazardous problems. I was just wondering if anyone else had had this happen in the past and what you may h
