PDI Issues Wipe Recall

Professional Disposables International Inc. (PDI) has issued a voluntary recall of non-sterile alcohol prep pads because of potential bacterial contamination.  
The recall was announced after the FDA visited the company's manufacturing plant and tests showed the presence of bacillus cereus on the pads. Bacillus cereus is the same bacteria that triggered prep pad recalls, a plant shutdown and lawsuits against the Triad Group and H&P Industries. However, PDI stressed that the levels of bacteria that were detected were low enough that the products remained within allowed specifications and that the recall was being done out of an abundance of caution.
