Benchmark XT/LT and Discovery XT Model Numbers: N750-BMK-FS, N750-BMKXT-FS, N750-BMKLT-FS, N750-DIS-FS, N750-DISXT-FS. Product Usage: Usage: The Benchmark product lines are intended to automatically stain histological or cytological specimens on microscope slides with specific immunohistochemistry or in situ hybridization reagents for in vitro diagnostic use. The Discovery Systems are research use only instruments with similar functionality. Class II

Reason: Ventana Medical System is initiating the recall of the BenchMark and DISCOVERY series instruments because there is a possibility that the heating element could separate from the underside of the heater cap and cause a non-staining or inconsistent staining event. Additionally, the system may not detect this anomaly and therefore it may not generate an error message for the slide position.

ADVIA 120 Hematology Analyzer, Catalog Numbers SMN 10360958 and 10360959 . The ADVIA 120 is a hematology system that utilizes the principles of flow cytometry in order to provide complete blood counts. Class II

Reason: The ADVIA 120 optics cover or hood is located on the very top of the ADVIA 120 analyzer. When the optics cover is raised, it is supported by two gas struts (SMN 10309266) attached to the cover on the left and right sides. Over time, it is possible that these struts may lose their effectiveness and fail to support the optics cover in the open position. This could cause the cover to fall during maintenance procedures.
