TEMPORARILY DISCONTINUED TESTS LIGHT CHAINS KAPPA/LAMBDA, SERUM AND URINE

Test code: 2062, 2063
Mnemonic code: QCLS, QCLO

Effective update from 16/10/2024

Dear colleagues and collaborators,

We inform you that, due to manufacturing problems with one of the reagents, we are obliged to temporarily discontinue, as of today, the 2062 - LIGHT CHAINS KAPPA/LAMBDA, SERUM and 2063 - LIGHT CHAINS KAPPA/LAMBDA, URINE tests.

We are working to resolve the problem as soon as possible, but currently we do not have a reactivation date for these tests. On the other hand, we also do not have an estimated release date for pending results.

As for the samples already received, the corresponding protocols have been established to guarantee the stability of the samples and ensure the quality of the results.

Given the situation, we kindly ask you to avoid sending new samples until further notice and to extend this information to all your customers.

We will keep you informed of any new developments,

We remain at your disposal for any questions or queries,


Kind regards,
