If you request or agree to a blood test in relation to suspicion for DUI, only a person trained in blood withdrawal can take a blood sample. The person responsible should be careful not to allow alcohol from a swab to contaminate the blood drawn. If a NIK kit is used, the person taking the sample is supposed to mix the blood by rotating the tube end to end 5 times. Afterwards, the officer present is instructed to take the tube and rotate it an additional 20 times. In both cases, the sample should not be shaken but gently rotated back and forth to allow for a proper mixing of the blood.
