  1. Her2 Fish System - 30 Test 

Reason

Leica Biosystems recently became aware that TA9217 lot 26806 contains mislabelled bond open containers. The containers display a Research Use Only (RUO) label and the inclusion of these containers as part of the Leica Her2 Fish System will prevent the user to be able to run the test. The bond instrument data management system (DMS) software will not allow the RUO-labelled bond open container to be used as part of the system.
