Reported risk: Due to a software issue on the Cobas 8000 Analyzer, a mismatch between the reagent probe positioning on the Cobas C701 and C702 Analyzers and the aspirated reagent volumes may occur under certain high throughput conditions. This may lead to partial air pipetting at the end of the Cobas C Pack large, possibly affecting patient sample and control recovery.
