It has been determined that certain lots of Access 2 Reaction Vessels may contain manufacturing deformities. The bottom (round end) of the Reaction Vessel may have a small protrusion or hair like deformity. This could cause causing instrument errors (e.g., pipetting, rake, wash carousel errors) that could delay patient results.
Due to a software error code that crashes during acquisition on patient sample when running customer defined acquisition protocol. This may lead to delayed patient results.
