FDA Recall Notice

A reduction in the reconstituted stability has been identified. Clinicians may notice a drop in recovery of the control after reconstitution, which could result in an out of specification result prior to the current reconstitution claim of 7 days. For this reason we suggest discontinuing use of the control set.
