| Issue: | The manufacturer is informing users of a shortage of the bottle liners used for the D100 HbA1c Elution Buffer A. To ensure a continuous supply of reagent for customers, the best alternative was to utilize the bottle liner for D100 HbA1c Elution Buffer B on a temporary basis until the bottle liner supply shortage is resolved. Both bottle liners have identical material specifications, which ensures that the product retains the same performance and stability. The only difference is the size of the liner; the Elution Buffer B bottle liner accommodates a smaller reagent volume than the Elution Buffer A bottle liner. |
