Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
The recall of the WASP (Walk Away Specimen Process) instrument was initiated because Copan Italia SpA has upgraded the software concerning the broth inoculation table feature. The upgrade has been considered necessary from the manufacturer in order to eliminate the very low risk of rotation of the broth table when the door is open.
