R&D Systems recalls Quantikine Erythropoietin Human Serum Controls due to incorrect CE marking in product instructions. Affected lots have a labeling error that may cause regulatory issues but does not pose a safety risk to users.
The Instructions for Use (IFU, Part Number 750095) provided with the affected lots by the firm contains an error associated with product s CE marking. The CE mark contained in the IFU is followed by the Notified Body designation, British Standards Institution number 2797 (BSI-2797) for product inserts 750095.28 and 750095.29. The erroneous label CE2797 were in the IFU insert revision 750095.28 for the 408 affected lots that were shipped. No product was packed with erroneous insert revision 750095.29. Since the product is currently CE marked as a Class I - self-certified product under the EU In Vitro Diagnostics Directive, the Notified Body designation should not be specified. As part of the corrective action, the firm has notified the customers who received the products with erroneous labeling, and is conducting the replacements with the correct product insert containing the Insert Revision 750095.30
