Reason for recall

light precipitate may form in prepared plates of Acumedia Tryptic Soy Agar (7100) Lot# 108166. While there is no change in growth performance of this medium, the formation of particulate matter may be misinterpreted as growth in poured plates thereby leading to inaccurate counts.
