Per product labeling, a full calibration is to be performed after reagent lot change or as required following quality control procedures.In previous investigations, it was found that the recovery of calibrator b with a concentration of 0.5 drifted from 95% to 118% within 7 weeks.The customer data shows a drift of approximately 0.2 ng/ml within 6 -8 weeks.The investigation determined the drift could influence low values around the limit of quantitation (loq) of 0.4 ng/ml and samples with results initially found below the loq when measured shortly after calibration can generate results above the loq if measured at a later point after calibration.
