The marketing authorization holder informed its supplied customers in a letter dated May 11, 2011, that due to reports of an unpleasant, moldy odor, the affected batches must be recalled. This odor emanates from the primary packaging (plastic bottles) and is due to contamination with traces of 2,4,6-tribromoanisole (TBA). TBA is a degradation product of 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP), which is used, among other things, for wood treatment, and entered the production chain via wooden pallets used to store and transport the plastic bottles.
