The risk is directly related to the joint use of the in-vitro diagnostic equipment "D-10 Hemoglobin Analyzer System" and the sample loader, there being no risk of using the equipment without this accessory, therefore, this field action involves the serial numbers of the sample loaders distributed in Brazil.
