Investigation summary: two photos and one loose 10ml oral syringe was received and evaluated.It was observed there was a small orange piece of foreign matter in the fluid path wedged in the tip of the syringe.It appears to be a piece of plastic from a tip cap.Ftir (fourier transform infrared ) spectroscopy analysis was completed on the orange material observed in the tip of the syringe and was compared with the ftir analysis of the loose orange tip cap received along with the syringe.A small portion of each of these material was removed and prepared for ftir spectral analysis.The spectral analysis shows that the material in the tip of the syringe is most likely polypropylene while the material of the tip cap is most likely polyethylene.A device history record review showed no rejected inspections or quality issues during the production of the provided lot number that could have contributed to the reported defect.Tip caps are not manufactured or packaged with this product.No corrective actions recommended since product defect was not confirmed.
