Intended Use
The SYNCHRON Systems 10 ng/mL and 40 ng/mL THC Urine Controls, in conjunction with the SYNCHRON Cannabinoid 20 ng (THC2) Reagent, are intended for use on SYNCHRON Systems for monitoring the quality control of cannabinoid (THC) testing in the clinical laboratory. These controls are designed for use with the family of SYNCHRON Systems which include analyzers such as the SYNCHRON CX4, CX®4CE, CX4 DELTA, CX5, CX5CE, CX5 DELTA, CX7, CX7 DELTA Systems and LX™20 Systems.
Device Story
SYNCHRON Systems 10 ng/mL and 40 ng/mL THC Urine Controls are ready-to-use, human urine-based liquid controls. Used in clinical laboratories to monitor the quality control of THC enzyme immunoassays. Controls are processed on SYNCHRON analyzer systems (e.g., CX4, CX5, CX7, LX20) alongside patient samples. By providing known concentrations of THC, the controls allow laboratory personnel to verify assay performance and ensure accurate clinical testing results. The device serves as a standard reference to validate the analytical process.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Stability studies support a 24-month shelf-life. Precision studies conducted with 20 replicates per material showed low imprecision (%CV 0.36% to 0.53%) across negative, low, and high calibrators and the 10 ng/mL and 40 ng/mL THC controls.
Technological Characteristics
Human urine-based liquid control; ready-to-use. Designed for use with SYNCHRON clinical chemistry analyzers. Storage requirements: +2°C to +8°C.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as quality control material in clinical laboratories to monitor the performance of cannabinoid (THC) enzyme immunoassays on SYNCHRON Systems.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A clinical toxicology control material is a device intended to provide an estimation of the precision of a device test system and to detect and monitor systematic deviations from accuracy resulting from reagent or instrument defects. This generic type of device includes various single, and multi-analyte control materials.
