Beckman Coulter DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyzer is a discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use.

The analyzer also may not eject RVs, where unbound conjugate could potentially splash up on the sidewall of the RV, not being properly washed away, resulting in an artificially higher signal (RLU). The analyzer may not detect this splashing and continue with normal operation, which can cause false low or high erroneous results. Consequently, the analyzer may cancel in-progress tests. These errors could potentially cause delay reporting patient test results and patient treatments. The degree of the potential health hazard is dependent on the analytes that are
