Randox SP CAL (LIQ) Calibrator Recall for Value Sheet Corrections

Randox Laboratories is recalling SP CAL (LIQ) calibrators because value sheets were modified to improve alignment for specific assays.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text describes a correction to value sheets and references to improve alignment, which aligns with the rubric for minor labeling errors or voluntary precautionary recalls without reported injuries.
