RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif., Feb. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ThermoGenesis Corp.(Nasdaq: KOOL), said today that it has initiated a voluntary recall of certain lots of its AXP(TM) AutoXpress Platform(TM) (AXP) bag sets.
The Company said it has discovered in a document review process that some lots of the bag sets were distributed prior to the performance of pyrogen testing, which is a manufacturing release criterion.
The Company said that this recall is not the result of any customer complaints or reports of patient safety issues. The Company also believes that the potential for any contamination is low. What this means for AXP customers is they are being asked to return inventory from recalled lots for additional testing at ThermoGenesis and they may be required to perform an additional test before releasing a cord blood unit for transplant.
The Company is cooperating fully with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and will provide updates as new information becomes available and if it believes there will be a potential material impact on the company's performance.
