LumiQuick Salmonella typhi Antigen Test Card Recalled for Regulatory Violations

LumiQuick Diagnostics Inc. is recalling Salmonella typhi Antigen Test Cards because they were shipped to US locations without approved PMA, IDE, or 510(k) clearance.

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 indicates a regulatory compliance issue (shipping without clearance) rather than a specific product defect causing harm. No injuries or illnesses are reported, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity voluntary or regulatory recall.
