* Within two hours of collection, add one tablet containing protease inhibitor cocktail and 0.5 mL of 2% sodium azide solution (weight to volume in water) to the sample for preventing bacterial growth (both additives provided by the Novotny Glycoscience Laboratory). Close the cap and mix gently by hand until the additives have dispersed into the urine sample.
* Label the sample with the study ID, subject ID, date and time of collection
* Store at -80°C
* Batch-ship samples on dry ice to:
