Product

PhenoMATRIX

Why was it recalled?

AI-powered bacterial culture plate interpretation and workup software does not have Premarket Approval or pre-market notification (510(k)/de novo), so there is potential risk that the colony count and/or morphology information from images may not accurately reflect actual plate and may lead to inaccurate counts and/or morphology characteristics impacting patient diagnosis and subsequent care.

What should you do?

FDA enforcement reports do not list a consumer remedy. Check the product codes below against what you have; if it matches, stop using it and follow the instructions in the firm's or FDA's official notice, or contact the company. If you have health concerns, contact your healthcare provider.
