    BIOMÉRIEUX INTERNAL INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED. THE RESULTS OF THE INVESTIGATION INDICATE RESULTS AT THE LIMIT OF THE COMPATIBILITY WITH ETEST® CLINDAMYCIN CM 256 (WHATEVER THE LOT TESTED) WHEN USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH MUELLER HINTON E AGAR. THIS ALLOWS A POTENTIAL FOR THE UNDERESTIMATION OF THE MIC FOR QC STRAINS 29213 WHICH CAN GIVE SOME VALUES OUT OF RANGE. BASED ON THE INVESTIGATION RESULTS, WHEN USING ETEST® CM 256 TEST KIT IN CONJUNCTION WITH MUELLER HINTON E AGAR, THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR LOW MIC FOR STAPHYLOCOCCUS STRAINS. INTERMEDIATE (I) STRAINS COULD GIVE A FALSE SUSCEPTIBLE RESULT (S) OR RESISTANT (R) STRAINS COULD GIVE A FALSE INTERMEDIATE RESULT (I). FIELD CORRECTIVE ACTION (FCA-2744) AND CORRESPONDING PRODUCT CORRECTION NOTICE (CUSTOMER LETTER) WERE ISSUED TO THE FIELD 14-DEC-2015.
