Changed/additional information added.D9 device available for evaluation -yes g6 type of report - follow-up.H2 if follow-up what type? additional information.Device evaluation.H3 device evaluated by manufacturer - yes, evaluation summary attached.H6 type of investigation- 4101, 4109, 4110, 4115.H5 investigation conclusion -zcd00006/unconfirmed defect h10 investigation report reads as follows: investigation summary: "04/02/2021, 08:30:12 cst: we received one each dynjp2001s with lot number 30520060056.We will review with division.We received an additional three each dynjp2001s with lot numbers 72520060120, 30520070079 and 32520060056.We will review with division.04/13/2021 07:47:03 cst: the samples that were returned were unused.Without the original sample and the foreign particulate, we are unable to confirm the issue.It is important to note that the spun bond fabric is manufactured with continuous filament fibers.There are very few fiber ends in this type of fabric construction that can cause small lint particles.Because of the extremely long fiber length, linting of spun bond fabrics is normally limited to wholesale fiber loss due to abrasion of the surface.Normal wear and bending of the fabric will generate very few loose particles.We have reviewed the complaint history and nonconformance for this item and no trends were identified relating to the reported issue.Correction to the lot number above, 32520060056 should be 30520060056.Okay to close.".
