Techno-Path Manufacturing Ltd. has recalled approximately 161,574 units of Multichem laboratory control products because the glass vials used to hold the material may crack or break. Reports indicate that these vials can break during delivery, while being thawed for use, or while being opened by laboratory staff. The breakage often occurs at the bottom of the vial, near the neck threads, or as cracks along the sides. If you use these products, contact your healthcare provider or the manufacturer for further instructions and a potential refund.
Broken or cracked vials may expose users to biohazardous materials through cuts or skin contact. Additionally, damaged vials can lead to a delay in patient test results if the control material is compromised or unavailable for laboratory calibration.
Contact the manufacturer or healthcare provider for instructions.
