Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

Roche Diagnostics Corp. initiated a voluntary correction because a rack crash may occur on the Cobas 8100 bi-directional reformatter (BRF) and uni-directional reformatter (BRF) modules with software version 02-xx, only when rack buffering is activated and the rack buffer is completely full. This issue can lead to sample spillage, posing a potential risk to operators / laboratory staff due to exposure to potentially infectious material, cross-contamination of samples in the affected racks and erroneous results due to sample carry-over.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
