The calibration and qc recovery data provided was acceptable.The alarm trace did not contain a conspicuous event.It was found that the sample tubes the customer were being filled with a volume of 3 ml, while they have a target fill volume of 3.5 m as designated by the manufacturer.It was also found that the customer centrifuges patient samples at 30 minutes at 2200 g, while the manufacturer recommends 10-15 minutes at 1800-2200 g.Based on the calibration and qc data, a general reagent issue could be excluded.The investigation did not identify a product problem.
