Recalled Product

A.OXOID HAEMOLYSIN REAGENT

Reason

A technical investigation has indicated that the above lot may not react strongly with all strains of listeria Monocytogenes when used in the Microbact Listeria 12L kit (MB1128A) thus making interpretation of the result more difficult than with alternate batches. Continued use of this batch may lead to negative reporting.
