Beckman Coulter, Inc. is recalling 38,225 units of Access 2 Reaction Vessels (Catalog Number 81901), which are disposable plastic tubes used to process patient samples on laboratory testing systems. The vessels may have small manufacturing deformities, such as hair-like protrusions on the bottom, that can cause laboratory instruments to error during testing. These errors can stop the testing process and lead to significant delays in providing results to patients.
The deformed vessels can interfere with the internal moving parts of the laboratory instrument, causing malfunctions that stop the analysis. This can result in laboratory delays and potentially affect the timing of medical diagnoses and patient care.
Used to process patient, quality control and calibration samples on the Access 2 Immunoassay system.
