Abbott Alinity i Estradiol Reagent Kit Recalled for Manufacturing Defect
Abbott is recalling 79 units of Alinity i Estradiol Reagent Kits due to a manufacturing issue that may cause bottle neck damage and instrument failure.
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 mechanical defect leading to instrument failure without reporting any patient injuries, illnesses, or deaths. This aligns with the 'Moderate' criteria for low-risk issues or voluntary precautionary recalls where harm has not been reported.
Plain-English summary
Abbott Ireland Diagnostics Division is recalling 79 units of Alinity i Estradiol Reagent Kits, List Number 07P5020. The recall is due to a manufacturing issue that can result in damage to a bottle neck in some of the reagent cartridges.
If a bottle neck is damaged, it may cause a failure during the reagent loading process on the Alinity i instrument. The affected units were distributed to facilities in Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Oklahoma, and Virginia.
The source text does not specify specific actions for consumers or healthcare providers, such as stopping use or contacting the manufacturer, but the recall is initiated to address the potential for instrument failure.
