We looked in to this a few years ago, not sure if the mailgroup was working then. We got quite a lot of answers but we couldn't find anything definitive. We went for the following: Green: Clinical Biochemistry Red: Laboratory Haematology Blue: Microbiology Black: Cellular Pathology Brown: Laboratory Immunology These were white cards with the ink being the bit that was coloured: this photocopies much better and more consistently than coloured cards. (Single piece cards with attached bags. Card not paper. No flimsies. No NCR.)
