Why these products were recalled

Identified a decreased performance reliability rate, Run abortions could cause delayed diagnosis since sample testing would have to be repeated

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.
