Product Description

Access Intact PTH assay, a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of intact parathyroid hormone (parathyrin, PTH) levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems, Catalog Number A16972

Lot/Code Info: UDI: (01)15099590201937(17)241130(11)231201; Lot 339071

Quantity Affected: 362 units

Reason for Recall

Beckman Coulter has identified that some Access PTH reagent packs from lot 339071 may be over- or under-filled in well 0. The dispensed material in well 0 could be above or below specification, risking sealing issues, contamination, instrument errors, delays, or inaccurate results with a negative bias and increase in imprecision. The issue was confirmed on 10 April 2024 by Beckman Coulter through an internal non-conformance (NC-INT-66585). The well 0 scale on the filling line began malfunctioning on the fill immediately before PTH. The malfunction was not noticed until the majority of PTH was filled.
