| Action | On September 20, 2005, the firm issued letters to all its direct consignees, informing them of the affected product and providing instructions on the recall.
In February, the firm expanded its recall to all lots as a result of having identified an additional failure in a different lot. |
| Distribution | Distribution of DILUENT is worldwide to a total of 1,584 consignees. All CELL-DYN 1800 customers were notified via the Device Recall Letter. At the time of receipt of the letter, the customer may or may not have the recalled lots in their inventory.
