The investigation could not reproduce the customer's results.The investigation tested the patient's sample without dilution and a valid albumin result could not be produced due to a data flag.The investigation tested the patient's sample with a 1:11 (decreased mode) and a 1:10 dilution and the albumin results were 5207.6 mg/l with a data flag and 5385.9 mg/l with a data flag.The investigation tested the patient's sample with a 1:20 and a 1:50 dilution, and the patient's results were 5190.7 mg/l and 4680.0 mg/l, which were comparable with the measurement of the optilite analyzer.The investigation did not identify a product problem.
