The assays were last calibrated on 16-may-2025 and calibration signals were within expected ranges.A sample specific discrepancy is likely, but further investigations were not possible as the patient's sample was beyond the claimed specimen storage stability.The investigation could not identify a product problem.The cause of the event could not be determined.
