“Cell Marque Antibodies Recall: Incorrect Expiry Date Risk.” GovInfoNow, updated August 19, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/62204-cell-marque-antibodies-recall-incorrect-expiry-date-risk. Based on FDA recall #Z-2311-2021 (https://api.fda.gov/device/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22Z-2311-2021%22&limit=1).

The FDA announced on July 15, 2021, that Cell Marque Corporation is recalling PSA (ER-PR8) Mouse Monoclonal Antibodies due to an incorrect expiry date. The hazard poses a risk of false negative results and delayed diagnosis if the product is used beyond its actual expiration.

How to tell if you have it

  • Brand: Cell Marque
  • Product: Cell Marque Antibodies, PSA (ER-PR8) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody
  • REF: 324M-15, 324M-16
  • Item/Lot: 324M-15/0000116695, 324M-16/0000116696

The hazard

The antibodies were labelled with an incorrect expiry date of Dec. 31, 2023, instead of the correct date of Dec. 31, 2022. If used beyond the actual expiry, material performance may decrease, resulting in weak or no staining and a potential risk of false negative results that could lead to delayed diagnosis due to retest.
