Warning and precautions
Do not inject or ingest.
The human blood used for the production of EIGHTCHECK-3WP-
N, EIGHTCHECK-3WP-L and EIGHTCHECK-3WP-H has been
tested with licensed reagents (Food and Drugs Administration’s
Bureau of Biologic, USA) and has been found non-reactive for
Hepatitis B Surface Antigen, Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) and HIV
(HIV1+HIV2) Antibody. However, none of the test methods known
today can guarantee that products based on human blood are not
infectious. In keeping with good laboratory practice, this product
should be considered potentially capable of transmitting infectious
disease.

EIGHTCHECK-3WP-H contain stabilized human erythrocytes,
