Description
RambaChrom VRE M/N 11600. RambaCHROM VRE is for detection of Van A/ Van B vancomycin resistant Enterococcus strains.
Discrepancies between the product package label and technical insert are conflicting and may be misleading to user. The technical insert included the statement for In Vitro Diagnostic Use. The product insert should have indicated for Research Use Only instead of for In Vitro Diagnostic Use.
On 12/10/2009 the firm sent letters to their customers notifying them of the problem and instructing them to replace insert with a new one. They were also instructed to complete and return a "Recall Response Form."
Distribution of the product was limited to AL, FL, IL, KY, MA, MI, MO, NY, OH, PA, & VA and one customer in France.
