Abstract: In order to produce a transport bag for transporting liquid samples, in particular blood, urine, tissue samples, or the like, two film layers made of plastic are placed one on top of the other and joined to one another in such a manner that an interior space is formed between the film layers. Before the two film layers are placed one on top of the other, a liquid or viscous carrier material into which absorber particles are or will be mixed is applied to at least one of the film layers. Subsequently, the carrier material with the absorber particles is dried and/or cooled. Preferably, the carrier material is sprayed or spattered or printed or knife coated or brushed onto the film layer.
