What happened

Life Technologies Corporation is recalling 79 units of the Ion Torrent Dx No Template Control Kit, a diagnostic test used to detect DNA and RNA from non-small cell lung cancer tumor specimens. The recall was issued because certain lot codes were assigned expiration dates that exceeded the product's approved shelf life. Two specific lots were mislabeled with a 24-month expiration date when the approved shelf life is only 9 months, and two additional lots had kit-level labeling showing a 12-month expiration date, which also exceeds the approved duration.

The affected product was distributed nationwide in the United States. The recall involves 12 specific lot codes, which are identified in the FDA record. The source document does not specify a remedy or recommended action for consumers who may have received this product.
