Intended for use as a syringe filter to sterilize, ultraclean, or clarify low volume solutions in direct patient care and pharmacy admixture applications.

This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a medical device called "Millex®- HV, VV, GV Syringe Filter Unit." It is an approval for the device to be marketed, based on its substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device.
This document does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria.
The 510(k) is a premarket notification process that demonstrates a new device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed device (predicate device). It primarily focuses on comparing the new device to an existing one. It does not typically include detailed performance study results, acceptance criteria, or ground truth establishment in the way that would be seen for a new, novel device requiring a PMA (Premarket Approval) or for AI/ML-driven devices.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from this document. The document confirms that the device is intended for use as a syringe filter to sterilize, ultraclean, or clarify low volume solutions in direct patient care and pharmacy admixture applications, and that it has been deemed substantially equivalent to a predicate device.

Dear Mr. Borrows
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification.
