Intended Use
The MicroScan Synergies plus™ Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panel is used to determine quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-negative bacilli. After inoculation, panels are incubated for 4.5 - 18 hours at 35°C +/- 1°C, in a WalkAway SI or equivalent, and read by the MicroScan® Instrumentation. Additionally, the panels may be incubated in a non-CO2 incubator and the AST portions can be read visually, according to the Package Insert.
Device Story
MicroScan Synergies plus Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panels are miniaturized broth dilution susceptibility tests. Panels contain dehydrated antimicrobial agents in Mueller-Hinton broth. Clinical laboratory technicians inoculate panels with standardized bacterial suspensions; panels are rehydrated with water. Incubation occurs in WalkAway SI system or equivalent (4.5-18 hours at 35°C). Device determines Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) by identifying the lowest antimicrobial concentration inhibiting bacterial growth. Results are read via MicroScan instrumentation or visual inspection. Data assists clinicians in selecting appropriate antibiotic therapy for gram-negative infections, potentially improving patient outcomes by ensuring effective treatment.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated using fresh and stock clinical isolates and challenge strains. Compared against NCCLS frozen reference panels. Results showed >99% Essential Agreement for Nitrofurantoin. Reproducibility and quality control testing met acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Miniaturized broth microdilution panels; dehydrated antimicrobial agents in Mueller-Hinton broth; rehydrated with water. Incubation at 35°C +/- 1°C. Compatible with WalkAway SI automated instrumentation or visual reading. Analyzes gram-negative bacilli susceptibility to Nitrofurantoin (1-256 µg/ml).
Indications for Use
Indicated for determining antimicrobial susceptibility of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-negative bacilli (E. coli, Citrobacter spp., Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp.) to Nitrofurantoin. For professional use in clinical laboratories.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A fully automated short-term incubation cycle antimicrobial susceptibility system is a device that incorporates concentrations of antimicrobial agents into a system for the purpose of determining in vitro susceptibility of bacterial pathogens isolated from clinical specimens. Test results obtained from short-term (less than 16 hours) incubation are used to determine the antimicrobial agent of choice to treat bacterial diseases.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent [(for the indications for use stated in the enclosure)] to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
{1}------------------------------------------------

### 510(k) Summary:
MicroScan® rapID/S plus™ Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panels are designed for use in determining quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-negative bacilli.
The antimicrobial susceptibility tests are miniaturizations of the broth dilution susceptibility test that have been diluted in Mueller-Hinton Broth and dehydrated. Various antimicrobial agents are diluted in broth to concentrations bridging the range of clinical interest. Panels are rehydrated with water, after inoculation with a standardized suspension of the organism. After incubation in the WalkAway® SJ System, or equivalent, for 4.5 - 18 hours, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the test organism is read by determining the lowest antimicrobial concentration showing inhibition of growth.
The proposed MicroScan® rapID/S plus" Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panel demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with an NCCLS frozen Reference Panel, as defined in the FDA document "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA", dated February 5, 2003. The Premarket Notification (510[k]) presents data in support of the MicroScan® rapID/S plus™ Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panel with Nitrofuranton.
The external evaluation was conducted with fresh and stock Efficacy isolates and stock Challenge strains. The external evaluations were designed to confirm the acceptability of the proposed rapID/S plus" (fram-Negative Panel by comparing its performance with an NCCLS frozen Reference panel. Challenge strains were compared to Expected Results determined prior to the evaluation. The rapID/S plus™ Gram-Negative Panel demonstrated acceptable performance with an overall Essential Agreement of >99% for Nitrofurantoin when compared with the frozen NCCLS Reference panel.
Instrument reproducibility testing demonstrated acceptable reproducibility and precision with Nitrofurantoin.
Quality Control testing demonstrated acceptable results for Nitrofurantoin.
