    Reason

    Beckman Coulter is recalling the UniCel DxH 800 Coulter Cellular Analysis System because the NRBC, Differential or Reticulocyte mix chamber drain ports may become plugged by rubber pieces from specimen tube caps, and result in biohazard or chemical exposure and/or the potential for generating incorrect results.
