A sampling system and method wherein the sampling system comprises a plurality of RFID tags devices for associating with a plurality of samples, a RFID apparatus capable of writing sample identification data to each of the devices, a RFID apparatus capable of reading sample identification data from the device associated with each of the samples. The sampling method comprising at least the steps of associating a radio-frequency identification device with a respective sample, electronically writing sample identification data to the radio-frequency identification device and electronically reading the sample identification data from the radio-frequency identification device to form a second set of data. Associating a RFID device with 50 one of a plurality of sample con tainers Writing a unique sample identifier to each of a plurality of RFID de vices associated with a sample Storing a copy of the data gener ated during the association stage Reading the sample identification data associated with a plurality of samples Storing test results relating to each of the associated samples with the sample identification data for each sample Combining the test results with at least some of the sample identifi cation data for each sample Figure 4 |
