Reported risk: The pooling software can create pools containing more or less donors than originally intended during simultaneous pooling runs for both the Cobas TaqScreen MPX and Cobas TaqScreen WNV tests, when the donor tube carrier on the Hamilton STAR/STARlet pipettor is missing a donor tube in any position within the donor tube carrier.
