For the pending event, investigation of the patient sample found an interference to streptavidin and an immunoglobulin that reacts with the reagent which affects the sample results.This interference is documented in product labeling for the assay: in rare cases, interference due to extremely high titers of antibodies to analyte-specific antibodies, streptavidin or ruthenium can occur.These effects are minimized by suitable test design.
