Intended Use
The Ethanol assay is used for the quantitative analysis of ethyl alcohol (ethanol) in human serum, plasma, or urine. The Ethanol assay should be exclusively used to detect ethanol and not other alcohols such as isopropanol or methanol. Reactivity with compounds structurally unrelated to ethanol has not been observed.
Device Description
Ethanol is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative analysis of ethyl alcohol (ethanol) in human serum, plasma, or urine. The assay is based on an enzymatic reaction. Active enzyme converts NAD to NADH, resulting in an absorbance change that can be measured spectrophotometrically. The increase in absorbance at 340 nm is proportional to the concentration of alcohol in the specimen.
More Information

No
The description focuses on a standard enzymatic assay and spectrophotometric measurement, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for the quantitative analysis of ethyl alcohol in human specimens, not for treating or diagnosing a disease.

Yes
The device is an "in vitro diagnostic assay" used for the quantitative analysis of ethanol in human biological samples, which provides information for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay" based on an "enzymatic reaction" and measures "absorbance change that can be measured spectrophotometrically." This indicates a chemical and optical process requiring physical reagents and a spectrophotometer, which are hardware components, not a software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The description explicitly states the assay is used for the "quantitative analysis of ethyl alcohol (ethanol) in human serum, plasma, or urine." This is a classic definition of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it analyzes biological samples outside of the body to provide information about a person's health status (in this case, the presence and amount of ethanol).
  • Device Description: The description clearly states "Ethanol is an in vitro diagnostic assay".
  • Mechanism: The assay uses an enzymatic reaction to measure a substance in a biological sample, which is a common method for IVD tests.

The information provided strongly indicates that this device is intended for use in a laboratory setting to diagnose or monitor a condition (ethanol levels) by analyzing biological specimens.

Summary of Performance Studies

Comparative performance studies were conducted using the AEROSET® System. The Ethanol assay method comparison yielded acceptable correlation with the Emit® II Plus Ethyl Alcohol assay on the SYVA 30R Analyzer. For serum, the correlation coefficient = 0.996, slope = 1.00, and the Y-intercept = - 1.87 mg/dL. For urine the correlation coefficient = 0.997, slope = 1.01, and the Y-intercept = -4.85 mg/dL. Precision studies were conducted using the Ethanol assay. A within-run study was performed using three levels of control material. The total %CV for the low control is 5.1%, 100 mg/dL calibrator/control is 2.8%, and the high control is 1.7%. The Ethanol assay range is 10 to 600 mg/dL. The limit of quantitation (sensitivity) of the Ethanol assay is 5 mg/dL. These data demonstrate that the performance of the Ethanol assay is substantially equivalent to the performance of the Emit II Plus Ethyl Alcohol assay on the SYVA-30R Analyzer.
