Reason

Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics has confirmed through internal investigation that the ADVIA Centaur Systems Cyclosporine, DHEA-s, Folate and AHBCM Assays are susceptible to biotin interference. This occurs when biotin present in patient samples interferes with the biotin-streptavidin assay architecture on the ADVIA Centaur platforms. Biotin interference has the potential to bias analytical results on these assays.
