Recalled Products

  1. Immage Immunochemistry Systems Rheumatoid Factor Reagent

Reason

During Beckman Coulter Inc (BEC) internal real-time stability testing, some lots of RF reagent showed calibration failure before the currently labeled shelf life. Although some lots have passed real-time stability testing, to be conservative, the expiration dating of all in-date and in-process lots is being shortened.
