Manufacturer Narrative
Though the trc does not allow for quantification, the customer communicated that a sample near the limit of detected was suspected.Data was provided and evaluated.The data shows all curves were negative without any abnormal curves with robust ic curves, which indicates that it is unlikely inhibition or a reagent issue.The sample generated consistent negative results during 2 separate runs.The runs contain valid controls as well as positive and negative samples, which also indicates that a reagent problem is unlikely.The discrepant results observed are likely sample specific due to a sample near the lod of the test.Samples near the lod can waiver between positive and negative.Differences in technology also cannot be ruled out as a contributing factor.No product problem was identified.It can be concluded that the discrepant results are related to sample specific factors.The customer issue has been alleged on the cobas sars-cov-2 qualitative test for use on the cobas 5800/6800/8800 systems ce-ivd, catalog number 09448870190 and udi (b)(4) which is not yet available in the us.The similar assay currently available in the us under emergency use authorization is the cobas sars-cov-2 test for use on the cobas 6800-8800 system (b)(4), product code: qjr).The product catalog number for the test (480t) is 09343733190 and the udi is (b)(4).
