Intended Use

Establishment of reference curves for the determination of IgG, IgG+4, IgM, C3c, C4, Transferrin, Albumin, α-antitrypsin, α-macroglobulin, Haptoglobin, α-acid glycoprotein, Prealbumin, Ceruloplasmin, RbP, Ig/L-chain lambda & kappa, ß2-microglobulin, Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), IgE, and Ferritin by immunonephelometry with the Behring Nephelometer Systems.

Device Story

N Protein Standard SL is a liquid calibrator derived from human serum with added stabilizers and preservatives. It is used in clinical laboratory settings to establish reference curves for immunonephelometric assays performed on Behring Nephelometer Systems. By providing a known standard, it enables the quantitative determination of various human serum proteins, including immunoglobulins, complement components, and transport proteins. The device is intended for professional use by laboratory personnel to ensure accurate assay calibration, which directly informs clinical decision-making regarding patient protein levels.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Stability was evaluated per in-house protocols, demonstrating the standard is stable for at least 12 months at +2° to +8° C as packaged, and 14 days at +2° to +8° C once opened.

Technological Characteristics

Liquid standard prepared from human serum; includes stabilizers and preservatives. Designed for use with Behring Nephelometer Systems (particle-enhanced nephelometry).

Indications for Use

Indicated for the calibration of human serum protein assays on Behring Nephelometer Systems to establish reference curves for the quantitative determination of specific proteins (IgG, IgM, C3c, C4, Transferrin, Albumin, etc.) in human serum samples.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A calibrator is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of values in the measurement of substances in human specimens. (See also § 862.2 in this part.)

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Box 6101 Newark, Delaware 19714 Re: K991181 Trade Name: N Protein Standard SL: Calibrator Regulatory Class: II Product Code: JIX Dated: April 5, 1999 Received: April 7, 1999 Dear Ms. George : We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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). 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 (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations. {3}------------------------------------------------ # Page 2 Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization.
