Abbott Troponin-I Controls Recalled for Missing Dry Ice

Abbott Laboratories is recalling ARCHITECT STAT High Sensitive Troponin-I Controls delivered without required dry ice to Latvia.

What this means for you

Cosmetic or documentation issue. No expected health impact, but the manufacturer is correcting the affected products.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class III, which by definition is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The issue is a packaging/shipping defect (missing dry ice) rather than a direct product hazard.

Plain-English summary

Abbott Laboratories is recalling two units of ARCHITECT STAT High Sensitive Troponin-I Controls. These products are used to estimate test precision and detect systematic analytical deviations in the ARCHITECT i System when used for quantitative determination of cardiac troponin I in human serum and plasma.
