ReasonThe LSI D13S319 SO/13q34 SA/CEP 12 SG probe of the two mixture DNA-Probe was contaminated with LSI ATM SG/p53 SO probe. This contamination would result in 10 FISH signals in each normal cell rather than the expected 6 FISH signals in each normal cell.
Root causeOther
ActionAbbott Molecular telephoned and/or sent recall letters to the Abbott FISH accounts on 12/22/06, advising them that an unexpected signal pattern with the Vysis LSI ATM/p53: D13S319 /CEP 12/13q34 Probe was observed, confirmed and identified as a result of contamination in a subset of vials of D13S319 /CEP 12/13q34 from lot number 79500. This contamination results in 10 FISH signals in each normal cell (4 SO, 4 SG, 2 SA) rather than the expected 6 FISH signals in each normal cell (2 SO, 2 SG, 2 SA). The customers were advised that lot 80178 was also being included in the recall, and were reques
