Target recalls certain 'Up & Up' baby wipes due to contamination concerns

Target is recalling specific types their "Up & Up" brand of baby wipes following customer complaints of skin irritation and product discoloration.

According to a recall announcement on the Food and Drug Administration's website, testing revealed the presence of two different types of bacteria in product samples of the fragrance free and cucumber scented wipes.
