So far, we have already experienced three times that flakes of plastic come loose from the phaseal luer lock connector (c35).The first two times there was 2305211 with lot and we had received a complaint report in february 2024.Yesterday the same problem happened for the third time, this time with lot 2405204.But because this specific product in this preparation needs to be administered through a 0,2 filter, the product could be used safely regardless the piece.
