Recall found
Product
RAPICIDE PA Part A High-Level Disinfectant, Model/Catalog Number: ML020116
Reason for recall
If the vented cap becomes blocked, gas may accumulate and the bottle may swell due to increased internal pressure. In some cases, excess vapor or liquid chemistry may escape from the bottle when the cap is twisted during opening, which could result in user exposure if required personal protective equipment (PPE) is not properly used. Such exposure may result in injury to the user or others in close proximity.
