Class II · Terminated

Class II FDA medical device recall by Genetic Testing Institute,inc, initiated 2014-12-15, terminated 2015-04-30. It names one FDA 510(k) clearance: K053559. Product: PF4 Concentrated Wash (10x), REF 403624, packaged in the following assay kits: 1. ImmucorGamma LIFECODES PF4 IgG (catalog numbers HAT13G, HAT45G) and 2. ImmucorGamma LIFECODES PF4 Enhanced (catalog numbers X-HAT13, X-HAT45) The PF4 IgG assay is an Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The PF4 IgG ELISA is intended to detect IgG antibodies in human serum that react with Platelet Factor 4 (PF4) when it is complexed to heparin or other polyanionic compounds. The PF4 IgG kit contains all of the reagents necessary to perform the assay.. Reason: Some Lots of PF4 Concentrated Wash (10X) are a slightly more dilute concentration. This may lead to slightly increased Optical Density (OD) values. Samples with a higher background reactivity may demonstrate false positive result (borderline reactivity) at or near the cutoff for the assay..

Reason for recall

Some Lots of PF4 Concentrated Wash (10X) are a slightly more dilute concentration. This may lead to slightly increased Optical Density (OD) values. Samples with a higher background reactivity may demonstrate false positive result (borderline reactivity) at or near the cutoff for the assay.
