  • Causa
    Fertipro has informed that some customers have reported reduced motility in certain semen samples when using the updated spermmar iga test (brown beads). this reduced motility may result in a lower proportion of free moving sperm and affect the interpretation of the results.
  • Acción
    Customers are instructed to stop using and destroy the affected batches. Fertipro is currently working on optimising the buffer of the reagent to avoid this reduction in motility. The optimised reagent will be included from batch FP14A11 onwards. Users are advised that the need for a look back at previously reported results be discussed with their clinical/laboratory director. This action has been closed-out on 01/03/2016.
