## Details

- Record Type: CHINA_PRODUCT_RECALL
- Title: Baidingsai (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd. is voluntarily recalling its Freelite® Human Lambda Free Kit (immunoturbidimetric assay) for detecting free lambda light chains.
- Company Name: Bangmei (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd.
- Publication Date: 2021-02-23
- Product Name: Freelite Human Lambda Free Kit (Immunoturbidimetric Assay)
- Recall Level: Level 3
- Recall Reason: In the "Test Methods" section of the Chinese instruction manual, "sample/diluted sample volume" is incorrectly translated as 15µl, when the correct value should be 5µl. This incorrect parameter setting will cause increased reactivity in the calibration curve. Quality control (QC) may still be within the limits permitted by the product's QC certificate, leading customers to use the reagent under an unverified protocol.
- Discovering Company: Baidingsai (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd.
- Manufacturing Company: Bangmei (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd.
- Summary: Bidetsai (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd. initiated a voluntary Class III recall of its Freelite® Human Lambda Free Kit (Immunoturbidimetric Assay) on February 23, 2021, as reported by the Shanghai Municipal Drug Administration. The recall was prompted by customer feedback revealing an error in the Chinese instructions for use. Specifically, the "Test Methods" section incorrectly stated the sample/diluted sample volume as 15µl, when the correct volume is 5µl. This discrepancy could lead to increased reactivity in the calibration curve. While quality control (QC) results might still appear within acceptable limits, this issue could result in customers using the diagnostic reagent in an unverified operational mode. As a required action, the company advised that if, after adjusting to the correct 5µl parameter, the QC results align with the product label's specified range, the affected kits can continue to be used and patient results reported. This measure ensures patient safety and accurate diagnostic outcomes under the NMPA's regulatory oversight.
