Recall Details

Company:
Roche Diagnostics Corporation
Reason for Recall:
Due to a design change in 2015, corrosion on the sample probe electrical contacts can occur and lead to a disturbance of the sample liquid level detection (LLD). When disturbance of the sample liquid level detection (LLD) occurs, the affected sample probe may dip into the sample material deeper than intended. This may lead to carryover and medical risk cannot be excluded.
Classification:
Class I - Dangerous

Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.

Status:
terminated
