Abstract: A system and methods for more quickly, accurately, and efficiently collecting, tracking, and transmitting sample collection data and information. Specifically, this involves the generation of printed labels in the field comprising labels with unique identifiers corresponding to specific sample collection data and information. The labels are printed at the location of the sampling and are applied on the outside of sample collection devices and at the location of sample collection. Each unique identifier is associated with a unique record number in the Electronic Chain of Custody (ECOC), corresponding to a specific sample.

Abstract: What is provided is a system and methods for more quickly, accurately, and efficiently collecting, tracking, and transmitting sample collection data and information. Specifically, this involves the generation of printed labels in the field comprising labels with barcodes corresponding to specific sample collection data and information. The labels are printed at the location of the sampling and applied on the outside of sample collection devices, such as bottles and coolers, for transport to desired environmental facilities. Each bar code is associated with a unique record number in the Electronic Chain of Custody (ECOC), corresponding to a specific sample. The collection information and data corresponding to the samples are automatically populated to databases in sample testing facilities upon scanning the barcodes. The ECOC is electronically transmitted to sample testing facilities prior to the arrival of the samples.
