Reason for recall
out-of-specification sodium azide concentration in Syva Emit Tox Serum Tricyclic Antidepressant Calibrator/Controls Lot U2. While the assay results were not impacted, the overall health risk to lab technicians due to this issue is low, as exposure is limited by small volumes and a 0.2% post-reconstitution sodium azide concentration, with the worst outcome being mild skin or eye irritation and no serious harm anticipated.
