Cell Marque Recalls Her2/Neu Reagent Due to Missing Export Labeling

Cell Marque is recalling Her2/Neu (c-erbB-2) reagents because they were not labeled as 'For Export Only' as required by law.

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 driven by a documentation and labeling error (missing 'For Export Only' text) rather than a product defect or health hazard, fitting the 'Low' severity criteria for documentation issues.

Plain-English summary

Cell Marque Corporation is recalling Her2/Neu (c-erbB-2) (CB-1 1) in vitro diagnostic reagents, catalog number 237M-18. The specific product affected is 7.0 mL, lot 11515602A, with an expiration date of May 2018.

The recall was initiated because the product was intended to be sold outside the United States but was not properly labeled as "For Export Only." This labeling omission violates section 801(e)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

The affected units were distributed nationwide to laboratories in California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Texas.
