What happened

Qiagen Sciences LLC is recalling QIAcube Connect MDx Model No. 9003070 devices because of a labeling problem on the info screen during the "Load tip racks and enzymes" step of run set-up. The screen states "minimal volume to be loaded" but displays the exact volume that should be loaded instead. This discrepancy could cause users to misunderstand the instructions, potentially resulting in samples that are over diluted, under diluted, or improperly lysed.

Mishandled samples could lead to false negative or false positive test results. The recall affects 93 devices distributed domestically across 25 states and Washington D.C., and 57 devices distributed internationally. The source document does not specify a remedy for affected consumers.

Hazard

Misunderstanding the guidance may lead to over diluted, under diluted, or improperly lysed sample, which in turn could lead to false negative or false positive results.
