Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Investigations have determined a reagent carryover to the crep2 (creatinine) or trigl (triglycerides) test can occur if a preceding test containing dextran sulfate is pipetted first and then followed by the chol2 (cholesterol gen.2) reagent.This carryover can result in discrepant, high results for crep2 and trigl.Installation of extra wash cycles avoids this issue.Customers have been provided with the workaround.
