Why these products were recalled

N Antiserum to Human IgG are not meeting the current High-Dose Hook Effect expectation of up to 648 mg/L for IgGU (urine) and up to 2290 mg/L for IgGC (CSF).

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
