The "Stratify JCV request form" has been replaced by an online registration process. All samples will be registered by a member of the Neurology team or Day Medical team electronically via the Unilabs website. A print out of the registered JC Virus test will be provided to labs along with the JC Virus tube & kit. A print out of the JC Virus Antibody Stratify lab pathology form must accompany the JC Virus sample kit to the lab department.
