If you have included the chloroform, you should be able to ship them on "wet ice" using cooler blocks.  Most courier companies should be able to do this, though there are a few that are better than others at maintaining the conditions, and handling the paperwork.  I recommend World courier, who are relatively expensive, but do a good and efficient job.

many thanks for your reply!

 

What about sending P1 on filter paper ...i remember that i once received T7 phage from DSMZ on filter paper.

 

Any one has experience?
