This strain should be resistant to high levels of Gentamicin and be resistant to Gentamicin Synergy. A specific lot was found susceptible to Gentamicin Synergy during in-house testing.
The affected lot was placed under quarantine in September 2021 due to complaints of alleged false positives, but 243 kits were erroneously released to customers in December 2021.
The Lactobacillus acidophilus negative control (item 0243 single KWIK-STIK) contained in the 8164 Cepheid Xpert GBS QC Set and 8165 Cepheid Smart GBS QC Set was found to test positive for Group B Streptococcus (GBS) in some cases. This causes a failure when used as a quality control for the Cepheid Xpert GBS and Cepheid Smart GBS systems. The failure of the quality control test causes a disruption for the testing laboratory which may result in repeated testing or the need for alternative test methods. This recall is applicable to the 8164 and 8165 sets only.
Returned test kits were erroneously shipped to customers. The kits are intended for Research Use Only (RUO). Additional RUO test kits were shipped to customers unlikely to use them for RUO purposes, and the firm provided a letter assuring distributors that RUO tests could be used for clinical diagnosis.
Lipemic interference for the Magnesium serum application failed to meet the performance claim as defined in the IFU. Use may cause a maximum positive bias up to 30.38% in low magnesium patient samples. The impact is only to the clinical interpretation of magnesium results in the presence of lipemia.
