The sample was not available for investigation.A general reagent issue can be excluded because quality validation data were within expectations.The product labeling states: "there is no high-dose hook effect at prolactin concentrations up to 270000 iu/ml (12690 ng/ml)." the investigation did not identify a product problem.The cause of the event could not be determined.
