Abstract

A sampling kit form for storage and shipping of organic material. The form includes first and second coextensively joined plies, with adhesive and release coating placed at select locations therebetween such that the form surfaces are substantially free of lateral or longitudinal undulations, which allows the forms to be stacked without leaning or sagging. The first ply also includes a die cut that circumscribes a removable inset portion. Upon removal of the inset portion, adhesive disposed on an inner surface of the second ply is exposed, thus permitting the organic material, such as hair samples, to be placed on the exposed adhesive coating. Fold lines in the sheet establish preferential folding locations so that the organic material samples can be encased between layers of adhesive and release coating within the form once it is folded. The form also includes a postcard that can be detached along a perforated line of weakness. The form outer surfaces bear instructional indicia that can be added either prior to or after form assembly.
