Reason for recall

The case was correctly labeled as REF 7501R, however the gallon bottle was incorrectly labeled as REF 7501G Cyto-Stain G. The bottle label has the correct lot number of 313833 and EXP date 11/2016. The gallon bottle contains the correct intended contents of 7501R: Cyto-Stain R Stain.
