Intended Use

Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin is intended for assisted reproduction procedures such as the processing or manipulation of human sperm prior to insemination, in vitro fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedures.

Device Story

Synthetic, defined medium; mixture of salts and physiologically compatible substances; contains 5 mg/mL human serum albumin. Used in clinical settings for sperm washing; semen suspended in medium; centrifuged to concentrate viable sperm; supernatant removed; sperm pellet resuspended in fresh medium; process repeated. Concentrates/purifies viable sperm; separates from seminal debris; simulates cervical mucous filtering. Increases viable sperm concentration for successful insemination (in vitro or intra-uterine).

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only: mouse embryo assay used to ensure absence of toxic components; endotoxin and sterility testing performed for lot-specific release.

Technological Characteristics

Synthetic, defined medium; contains salts and 5 mg/mL human serum albumin. Liquid form factor. No electronic components or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in assisted reproductive procedures, including sperm processing/manipulation prior to insemination, IVF, and ICSI.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Reproductive media and supplement are products that are used for assisted reproduction procedures. Media include liquid and powder versions of various substances that come in direct physical contact with human gametes or embryos (including water, acid solutions used to treat gametes or embryos, rinsing solutions, sperm separation media, supplements, or oil used to cover the media) for the purposes of preparation, maintenance, transfer or storage. Supplements are specific reagents added to media to enhance specific properties of the media (e.g., proteins, sera, antibiotics, etc.).

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing). The device, when it is phosphate-buffered saline used for washing, and short-term handling and manipulation of gametes and embryos; culture oil used as an overlay for culture media containing gametes and embryos; and water for assisted reproduction applications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.

Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin contains 5 mg/mL of human serum albumin. April 20, 1999 {1}------------------------------------------------ .. . . . . . ### Intended Use: Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin is intended for use in assisted reproductive procedures such as sperm washing. ## Technological Characteristics: Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin is used to purify and concentrate sperm prior to use in assisted reproductive procedures. The goal of such sperm "washing" procedures is to concentrate and purify viable sperm, and separate them from the non-sperm constituents of seminal fluid, simulating the filtering effect of cervical mucous. A higher concentration of viable sperm increases the chance of successful insemination, either in vitro, or intra-uterine. When performed with a culture medium such as Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin, semen is suspended in the medium, centrifuged to concentrate the viable sperm, and the supernatant, containing seminal debris, is removed. The sperm pellet is then resuspended in fresh medium, and recentrifuged. During this process, viable sperm are concentrated in the medium, and are then aspirated and used for the fertilization procedure. ## Performance Data: Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin is assayed by mouse embryo assay prior to its release to market. This assay assures that the product contains no toxic components. Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin has been used in a variety of clinical settings, for its original, intended use, for a number of years. In that time, the product had become an standard alternative media used for the processing of human sperm prior to assisted reproductive procedures. # Additional Information: Mouse embryo testing will be performed as a condition of release for this product, as well as endotoxin and sterility testing. Results of all release assays {2}------------------------------------------------ performed will be reported on a lot-specific certificate of analysis, and will be indicated on the labeling. # Conclusion: The conclusion from performance testing, as well as a history of satisfactory use for sperm processing prior to intrauterine insemination, shows that Modified Ham's F-10 with Albumin is suitable for its intended use, and meet the criteria outlined in the Notice of Final Rule, 63 FR 48428, Docket number 97N-0335. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
