Agilent Bond Elut OMS Cards Recalled for Lack of FDA Clearance

Agilent Technologies is recalling Bond Elut OMS cards because they were marketed without the required FDA 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 identifies the issue as a regulatory compliance failure (marketing without clearance) rather than a physical defect causing injury. No illnesses or injuries are reported, fitting the criteria for a moderate, precautionary regulatory recall.
