Hycor Biomedical recalls 300ml HYTEC Stop Solution bottles with 1N sodium hydroxide that have leaked. These caustic solutions can cause skin burns. Affected units include specific lot numbers and kits.
Some of the Stop Solution bottles, a caustic solution, have been reported to leak.
Hycor Biomedical is recalling 300ml HYTEC Stop Solution bottles that contain a caustic solution (1N sodium hydroxide) due to reported leaks. Leaking bottles can cause skin burns or other injuries. Affected units include specific lot numbers and kits sold separately or as components.
The Stop Solution contains a caustic solution (1N sodium hydroxide) that can leak from the bottle. Leaking bottles may cause skin burns or other injuries if the solution comes into contact with skin. The solution is used in allergy testing kits, so improper handling could lead to exposure.
All owners of HYTEC Stop Solution 300ml bottles with lot numbers 154803 or 154144, and kits containing these lots, are affected. People using the product for allergy testing are most at risk due to the caustic nature of the solution.
Check the bottle label for lot numbers 154803 (expires 31-MAR-2021) or 154144 (expires 30-SEP-2020). Also, check the kit lot numbers listed in the product description for affected units.
Inspect the bottle for signs of leakage or damage. If leaking, stop using immediately.
Reach out to Hycor Biomedical for specific instructions on how to return or replace the product.
The product is not safe if it leaks, as it contains a caustic solution that can cause skin burns. Use only if the bottle is intact and not leaking.
Stop using the bottle immediately and contact Hycor Biomedical for instructions on disposal or replacement.
