Reason

Vial to vial variation in the fill volume that could affect control recovery issues and cause a control result to fall outside the suggested recovery ranges. An under-fill of the vials was found ranging as low as 4.63 ml. When used to reconstitute HNC/HEC, control values were shown to be out of range running on the high end.
