HLA-B27 Testing Delays
Please be advised that the standard 10-day turnaround time for HLA-B27 testing is currently not being met. This disruption follows a field safety notice issued by the manufacturer of the testing kits, and we are currently awaiting delivery of a replacement reagent.
All samples received from 2nd September 2025 onwards are being stored appropriately and will be processed once testing resumes.
We endeavour to report results as soon as possible once testing recommences.
If you require any further information or have an urgent request, please contact the laboratory on 01443 622175
We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.
