Responsible Entity Thermo Fisher Scientific Australia Pty Ltd
Reason/Issue Thermo Fisher Scientific has identified that the Plain Container patient information label adhered to specimen jars for specific lots is incorrect as it contains the phrase "10% Neutral Buffered Formalin". The correct label is exactly the same, but without the "10% Neutral Buffered Formalin" phrase.

The product information on the box (contains the containers) and content label on the containers are correct.
