  • Acción
    Abbott sent Urgent Product Recall letters dated 7/20/10 to the VP 2000 Processor customers on same date via FedEx, informing them that the heated reagent basins could crack along the bottom seam, have non-uniform coating of interior corners, warping of the aluminum housing or incorrect dimensions. These deficiencies could result in leakage or the inability to place the basins into the VP 2000 Processor, resulting in possible exposure to chemical reagents, a slippery floor hazard, and/or delay or failure to start a protocol run. An Abbott Molecular customer service representative will call them to coordinate replacement of all of their heated reagent basins before 10/31/10. Customers were to complete and return the Customer Reply form provided. Any questions were directed to their local Abbott Molecular Representative. *** A second recall letter was sent to all customers on 12/21/10 explaining that the VP 2000 heated reagent basins previously inspected and determined to be acceptable could develop a leak, and that they would be contacted by an Abbott Molecular Customer Service Representative or Field Service representative in early 2011 to coordinate replacement of all of their VP 2000 heated reagent basins. ***
