Lin-Zhi International recalls two ethyl alcohol test kits that may degrade faster when detergent residue is present, reducing shelf life. Consumers should check lot codes and contact the company for details.
Shelf life of the product may be reduced due to degradation of the assay.
Lin-Zhi International is recalling two ethyl alcohol test kits (small and large) because detergent residue can cause them to degrade faster, reducing their shelf life. This means the kits may not work as expected after a shorter time than intended.
Detergent residue on the test kits can cause the ethyl alcohol assay to degrade faster than normal, reducing the product's shelf life. This means the kits may not function properly after a shorter time than intended.
Users of the ethyl alcohol test kits who have detergent residue on the containers or pitchers may be affected. Those who use the kits for testing in environments with detergent exposure are at slightly higher risk.
Check for lot codes 1810026 (small kit) or 1810:025 (large kit) on the product packaging. The kits were sold with detergent residue on the containers or pitchers.
Look for lot codes 1810026 for the small kit or 1810025 for the large kit on the packaging.
