Reported risk: Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics has confirmed that the Alkaline Phosphatase Reagent Kit lots listed on the report used on the ADVIA 1200, 1650, 1800, 2400 and XPT Chemistry Systems demonstrate an increased incidence of absorbance flags (u,U) and //// errors. Absorbance flags u and U indicate abnormal high absorbance exceeding either the blank or sample limit. Absorbance flag //// indicates a calculation error and no result is generated by the system.
