Kamiya Biomedical Recalls K-Assay Multi-Analyte Calibrator Due to Incorrect Values
Kamiya Biomedical is recalling specific lots of the K-Assay Multi-Analyte Calibrator because the Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AlAT) values listed in the package insert were incorrect.
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. The hazard is a labeling error (incorrect calibrator values) which is a minor labeling error that could impact test accuracy but does not present an immediate risk of serious injury or death.
Plain-English summary
Kamiya Biomedical Company, LLC is recalling 1,398 units of the K-Assay(R) Multi-Analyte Calibrator, REF KAI--016C. The recall involves specific lot numbers: N653, N654, D755, D647, F648, F649, G650, J651, and L652. The product is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) calibrator intended for the calibration of various immunoturbidimetric assays, including Alpha-1 Acid Glycoprotein, Alpha-1 Anti-Trypsin, Complement C3, Complement C4, Haptoglobin, IgA, IgG, IgM, and Transferrin.
The recall was initiated because the Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AlAT) calibrator values provided in the package insert for lot D755, lot N653, and lot N654 were not correct. This labeling error could affect the accuracy of the calibrator for those specific analytes.
The affected units were distributed worldwide, including in the United States (FL, CA, WA, OH, IA, IL, NJ, NY, NC, MA, TX, CT, MD, VA) and internationally to Tunisia, the Czech Republic, Taiwan, the Dominican Republic, Switzerland, China, and Jamaica.
