Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
Defective container; lidding deformity allows the contained product to transpire causing potential viscosity and assay failures. The viscosity and assay failures were due to the loss of moisture. The loss of moisture caused the viscosity to increase and assay to increase relative to the sample volume
