Reason
Sample barcode readers (Part number B04354) on some PK7300 automated microplate systems may misread sample barcode labels (Sample ID) due to the alignment of the barcode read angle. Even when check digits are present, there may be cases where the misread is not identified by the system as a "Sample ID Read Error".
