Reason

When two or more samples are loaded for processing with the same Sample ID (duplicate Sample IDs), the analyzer will display Apsw81 error messages ('Sample ID Is Not Unique') and one of the samples may be unexpectedly processed. The error message displayed with the Apsw81 error code states:

  • 'The sample barcode ID is not unique ({Sample Barcode*}). The affected sample will not be processed.'
  • *The actual duplicate ID is displayed in brackets.
  • The unexpected processing creates the potential for results to be associated with the incorrect patient.
