Calibration and controls were acceptable.The patient sample was provided for investigation.The result obtained by the customer could be reproduced.Investigations of the sample determined that it contains an interfering factor against the ruthenium label of the testosterone assay.A streptavidin interference could be excluded.Per product labeling, "in rare cases, interference due to extremely high titers of antibodies to-specific antibodies, streptavidin or ruthenium can occur.These effects are minimized by suitable test design." the investigation did not identify a product issue.
