The analyzer serial number is (b)(6).It was determined that the two versions of the benz assay are not directly comparable.The new version of the assay contains beta-glucuronidase enzyme while the old version does not.To be compared, the samples would need to be treated with beta glucuronidase when using the old version.Both assays have a different cross-reactivity to glucuronides.Per the benz product labeling, "many benzodiazepines appear in the urine largely as the glucuronidated conjugate.Glucuronidated metabolites may have more or less cross-reactivity than the parent compound." per the bnz2 product labeling, "many benzodiazepines appear in the urine largely as the glucuronidated conjugate.Glucuronidated metabolites may have more or less cross-reactivity than the parent compound.The presence of -glucuronidase enzyme enhances the benzodiazepines ii assay cross-reactivity to some of the glucuronidated metabolites." no product performance issue was identified.
