Affected Products
Alinity m System, Part Number: 08N53-002
Quantity: 1,012 units
Why Was This Recalled?
The Alinity m System camera detects whether tubes are "capped." If the camera detects a cap and the retention bar is not present on the sample rack, the system will generate the message 'Error - 6013: Has cap, no retention bar." Abbott has identified an issue concerning the use of certain third-party Universal Transport Medium (UTM) tubes on the Alinity m System. This issue has been observed with Copan UTM-RT 3 mL Without Beads Transport & Preservation Medium for Viral Molecular Diagnostics Testing, Part Number (PN) 3C047N. However, it is possible that other third party manufactured tubes could experience the same issue.
Where Was This Sold?
This product was distributed nationwide across all 50 states.
