| Submission Type | Traditional |
| Regulation | 21 CFR 862.1475 |
| Device Class | Class 1 |
Intended Use
Reagents: For the direct, quantitative determination of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in human serum or plasma. Calibrator: For the calibration of the N-geneous® LDL-ST Cholesterol assay in serum or plasma. Controls: To monitor the performance of the Genzyme Direct LDL Cholesterol, N-geneous® LDL Cholesterol and N-geneous® LDL-ST Cholesterol Reagents.
Device Story
Device is a two-reagent homogeneous assay for direct quantitative determination of LDL-C in human serum or plasma; used on Olympus chemistry analyzers. Principle: first detergent selectively solubilizes non-LDL lipoproteins for enzymatic removal; LDL particles remain intact. Second detergent releases LDL cholesterol; subsequent enzymatic reaction with 4-aminoantipyrine produces color proportional to LDL-C concentration. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Output is quantitative LDL-C measurement; assists clinicians in lipid profile assessment and cardiovascular risk management.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Comparative study of 77 serum samples (LDL 54.5–222.1 mg/dL) on Olympus AU600 analyzer. Correlation with ß-Quantification (n=62): r=0.969, slope 1.08, intercept -8.7 mg/dL. Correlation with predicate N-geneous® LDL (n=77): r=0.990, slope 1.02, intercept -1.7 mg/dL. Precision studies (n=20 per run) showed within-run CV 0.8–1.4% and between-run CV 2.1–2.7%.
Technological Characteristics
Two-reagent homogeneous enzymatic assay. Uses selective detergents for differential solubilization of lipoproteins. Colorimetric detection via peroxidase reaction with 4-aminoantipyrine. Designed for automated chemistry analyzers (e.g., Olympus AU600). No off-line pretreatment or centrifugation required.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the direct, quantitative determination of LDL-C in human serum or plasma for clinical laboratory use.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A lipoprotein test system is a device intended to measure lipoprotein in serum and plasma. Lipoprotein measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis, and various liver and renal diseases.

The use of the Genzyme N-geneous® LDL-ST Cholesterol Reagents in the clinical laboratory setting is substantially equivalent to the N-geneous® LDL Cholesterol Reagents and the B-Quantification methods.
The Genzyme N-geneous® LDL-ST Cholesterol Reagent is a two-reagent homogeneous method for the direct quantitative determination of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in human serum and plasma. This method is applicable to Olympus two-reagent Chemistry Analyzers and does not require any off-line pretreatment or centrifugation steps.
The principle of the test is based upon a unique detergent which selectively solubilizes only the non-LDL lipoproteins, allowing them to be removed by cholesterol enzymes prior to the LDL cholesterol reaction. The LDL particles remain intact. The hydrogen peroxide produced by the reaction of the enzymes with the released cholesterol is consumed by a peroxidase reaction with 4-aminoantipyrine, yielding a colorless product. A second detergent, capable of releasing LDL cholesterol molecules, is added. The enzyme reaction with LDL cholesterol in the presence of the coupler produces color which is proportional to the amount of LDL cholesterol in the sample.
Comparative performance studies were conducted using the N-geneous® LDL-ST Cholesterol Reagents and two reference methods: N-geneous® LDL Cholesterol Reagent and ß-Quantification.
