  • Causa
    Siemens healthcare diagnostics has confirmed over-recovery of samples with concentrations greater than 5.5 ng/ml (19.2 nmol/l) with the immulite/immulite 1000 and immulite 2000/immulite 2000 xpi androstenedione assays (lkao1, l2kao2)., siemens has determined that these lots are linear up to a concentration of 5.5 ng/ml (19.2 nmol/l), instead of 10 ng/ml (34.9 nmol/l) as stated in the instructions for use (ifu). quality control materials at concentrations between 5.5 ng/ml (19.2 nmol/l) and 10 ng/ml (34.9 nmol/l) will detect this issue., this is a follow up to the above where siemens is now providing supplementary information regarding the dilution of androstenedione samples >5.5ng/ml (19.2 nmol/l) as an alternative to verifying samples with an alternate method.
