Atellica CH: The Atellica¿ CH High Sensitivity CReactive Protein Calibrator (hsCRP CAL) is for in vitro diagnostic use in calibrating the hsCRP assay using the Atellica¿ CH Analyzer.
Atellica and ADVIA hsCRP calibrator accuracy has drifted away from the reference materials (ERM-DA470/IFCC), which is causing a high bias on QC and patient sample recovery.
The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.
