A company that makes baby wipes sold under multiple brand names and in multiple stores has issued a recall because some packages may contain bacteria.

The wipes recalled were manufactured under the brand names Cuties, Diapers.com, Femtex, Fred's Kidgets, Member's Mark, Simply Right, Sunny Smiles, Tender Touch and Well Beginnings.

The company, Nutek Disposables, Inc. of Pennsylvania, says it received complaints about odor and discoloration. Testing showed the presence of bacteria in some of those packages.

The bacteria found poses little risk to healthy people, but those with weakened immune systems, chronic lung disease, or some other health problems are urged to call a doctor if they have used any of these products.

The cause of the problem is still under investigation and shipping of baby wipes has ceased from the facility where those lots were made.
