Why the product was recalled
Carryover from the Direct LDL-cholesterol assay on the Rx instruments may result in a negative bias, up to -11%, in quality control and patient samples, in urea assays results if the urea assay is run immediately after the Direct LDL-cholesterol assay. This may lead to a delay in reporting results or in falsely decreased urea test results.
