Recall details

Recalling firm
Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc.
Reason for recall
If the bar code is printed from the Batch Results Screen, a wrong batch ID may be printed, while the correct batch ID is still assigned to the batch in the data repository of the MPLC 2.0 software. This may result in sample mis identification. If printed from the ordering screens, the bar code is printed with the correct batch ID.
Action taken
