Recalled Products

A. Quanta Flash DGP IGA calibrators

Reason

The kit box and calibrator tubes are correctly labelled with Lot 141010 but the display and reports on the bio-flash system indicate Lot "141009". This was caused by an error in the barcoding of the calibrator tubes, which also assigned target values to the calibrators from lot 141009 rather than from Lot 141010.  The target values of the two Lots are comparable. Therefore, results previously reported are not impacted by this recall.
