A previous recall related to reports of calibration failure and late retention times using elution buffer led to an examination of other buffers manufactured during the same time period and a decision was made to field correct these products until a definitive root cause and corrective action have been found and implemented.

Bio-Rad sent an Urgent Medical Device Correction letter on September 12, 2011, to all affected subsidiaries and customers. The letter identified the product, the problem, and the action to be taken by the customer. Customers were instructed to discard all affected product in accordance with all local, state and federal disposal procedures. If customers distributed the product further they should direct their customers to discard all unused product. Customers were asked to please translate (if necessary) the attached "Customer Medical Device Correction Response Form," customers should add their local contact information and distribute to all affected customers in their region by mail or fax. Compile tracking documentation (e.g. Excel spreadsheet) for all customers who received the Medical Device Correction Letter. Complete the "SUBSIDIARY MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION RESPONSE FORM" and fax to Bio-Rad Regulatory Affairs at (510) 741-3954, or e-mail PDF to CSD_RA/Hercules/US/BIO-RAD. Customers would be issued credits for the affected products based on their request. For questions call (510) 741-3954.
