App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
Sample material may potentially come in contact with the pipetting nozzle during operation of cobas p 612 pre-analytical system (63x) (LCP1) with non-filter tips. The possible presence of biological material on the nozzle may cause contamination resulting in potential false positive results, depending on the sensitivity of the analytical technology.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.
