Why it was recalled
During the "Load tip racks and enzymes" step of the run set-up, the info screen indicates "minimal volume to be loaded", but the indicated volume is instead the exact volume that should be loaded. Misunderstanding the guidance may lead to over diluted, under diluted, or improperly lysed sample, which in turn could lead to false negative or false positive results.
