Known gap: openFDA describes 2004-present coverage, but the current export has no report-date records in this interval.

event_date_initiated coverage
June 01, 1997–June 30, 2026
Enforcement coverage uses report dates; product initiation dates can precede those bounds. Device-enrichment coverage uses FDA event_date_initiated.
Product dates, classifications, firms, and source wording remain attached to their individual rows.
Opening this dossier never hides products that did not match a prior timeline filter.

QC Sets and Panels: KWIK-STIK. Cepheid Xpert GBS QC Set (Live Culture). Sets include: 1. 0864E3 Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B, lb) derived from ATCC 12401; 2. 0864E5 Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B, lb) derived from ATCC 12401; 3. 0864E7 Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B, lb) derived from ATCC 12401; 4. Negative Control 0243 Lactobacillus acidophilus derived from ATCC 4356
The Lactobacillus acidophilus negative control (item 0243 single KWIK-STIK) contained in the 8164 Cepheid Xpert GBS QC Set and 8165 Cepheid Smart GBS QC Set was found to test positive for Group B Streptococcus (GBS) in some cases. This causes a failure when used as a quality control for the Cepheid Xpert GBS and Cepheid Smart GBS systems. The failure of the quality control test causes a disruption for the testing laboratory which may result in repeated testing or the need for alternative test methods. This recall is applicable to the 8164 and 8165 sets only.
These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.
