Action An urgent Medial Device Recall letter dated 5/9/17 was sent to customers to inform them that Beckman Coulter is initiating a field action for Access Total T3, Access Thyroglobulin, Access Free T4, and Access GI Monitor. Beckman Coulter has determined through customer feedback and an internal investigation that the four Access immunoassays listed above are susceptible to biotin interference. During interference testing the interference occurred with samples that contained 100 ng/mL of biotin. This level of biotin is greater than the maximum biotin concentration observed in the normal healthy population. Customers are informed of the impact, action, and resolution. Customers are instructed to respond within 10 days: electronically via email or manually by completing and returning the enclosed response form. Customers with any questions regarding the notice are instructed to contact Customer Technical Support Center: ¿ From our website: http://www.beckmancoulter.com ¿ By phone: call 1-800-854-3633 in the United States and Canada. ¿ Outside the United States and Canada, contact your local Beckman Coulter representative.
