Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: Pending LLM scoring against the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Sample probes with defective probe tips, when used with clinical chemistry analyzers, may lead to a lower concentration being dispensed, which may not be detectable by QC checks, which could lead to the reporting of false low test results (Max 34% error at 1.0 microliters and 7% error at 1.6 microliters sample dispensing volume), which may lead to delayed recognition and treatment.
