Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The investigation did not identify a product problem.The issue was found to be sample-specific as the wavering results were due to the low levels of mutation which generated a ct value near the limit of detection for the exon 19 del target.According to the method sheet, "detection of a mutation is dependent on the number of copies present in the specimen and may be affected by sample integrity, amount of isolated dna, and the presence of interfering substances.".
