Affected Products

  1. MassCheck Cortisol, Cortisone Saliva Control Level 1
  2. MassCheck Cortisol, Cortisone Saliva Control Level II

    Reason

    The batches on the market of order no 730390, 0349 and 0350 show a time-dependent stability ­related deviation from the target values. Using the affected calibrator batches may result in increased results of patient samples, with a positive bias of approx. 15 % detectable. However the measured concentrations are still within the Chromsystems internal acceptance criteria.
