Product Description

Product Name: Lumipulse ¿-Amyloid Plasma Controls Model/Catalog Number: 81559 Software Version: Not Applicable Product Description: Lumipulse ¿-Amyloid Plasma Controls: This quality control product can be used as an objective judgement of the laboratory s procedures and personnel techniques when analyzing ¿-amyloid1-42 in K2EDTA plasma on the LUMIPULSE G System. It is a valuable tool to assess good laboratory practices. Two levels of control are available to compare observations with expected ranges therefore assuring consistent performance of the testing system within the clinical range. Lumipulse ¿-Amyloid Plasma Controls: Liquid (Frozen), 2 ¿2 Concentrations L1 Level 1 (2¿ 1.5 mL) L2 Level 2 (2¿ 1.5 mL) Contains Tris buffer with protein (bovine) and chemical stabilizers. Preservative: 0.1% ProClin 950 Component: Yes. Lumipulse G pTau217/B-Amyloid 1-42 Plasma Ratio

Reason for Recall

Customers may experience inaccurate test results by observing a higher frequency of classification in the indeterminate and positive zone and/or low specificity when compared back to FDA-cleared CSF ratio/PET imaging, due to falsely elevated positive ratio or falsely elevated indeterminate ratio results causing an incorrect classification of a patient as having amyloid pathology associated with Alzheimer s disease (positive result) and/or requiring more clinical testing of that patient (indeterminate result).
