  • Causa
    Bio-rad have observed that intact pth may not meet the thawed unopened and thawed open vial stability claims as printed in the package inserts. there is a possibility that intact pth values in the lots affected may gradually shift down due to a decrease in stability when the product is stored at 2 to 8°c. the claims for intact pth have been revised from 23 days to 7 days.Although unlikely, the reported issue may result in a delay in result reporting or the false signalling of an in-control situation.
