Not Found
I am sorry, but the provided text from the FDA 510(k) letter does not contain information about acceptance criteria for device performance or a study proving that the device meets such criteria. This document is primarily an FDA clearance letter for a medical device (FREELITE® Human Kappa Free Kit and FREELITE® Human Lambda Free Kit) regarding its substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device.
The letter confirms that the device can be marketed subject to general controls and specifies the regulation number, regulation name, and product codes. It also includes the "Indications for Use" for both kits, but it does not detail any performance metrics, studies, sample sizes, expert involvement, or adjudication methods that would be required to answer your specific questions.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the given input.

Trade/Device Name: FREELITE® Human Kappa Free Kit and FREELITE® Human Lambda Free Kit for use on the Dade Behring Nephelometer II
Regulation Number: 21 CFR 866.550
Regulation Name: Immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system
Regulatory Class: Class II
Product Code: DFH [Kappa]; DEH [Lambda] Dated: June 10, 2003 Received: June 13, 2003
Dear Mr. Geller:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of July 15, 2003, regarding the omission of the FREELITE® Human Lambda Free Kit from the trade name information above, and of the product code for the FREELITE® Human Kappa Free Kit, i.e., DFH.
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 [{{or 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 (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.

Page 2 - Mr. Jay H. Geller
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to continue marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-3084. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at their toll free number (800) 638-2041 or at (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html.

§ 866.5550 Immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system.
(a)
Identification. An immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques both kappa and lambda types of light chain portions of immunoglobulin molecules in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. In some disease states, an excess of light chains are produced by the antibody-forming cells. These free light chains, unassociated with gamma globulin molecules, can be found in a patient's body fluids and tissues. Measurement of the various amounts of the different types of light chains aids in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma (cancer of antibody-forming cells), lymphocytic neoplasms (cancer of lymphoid tissue), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (increased production of large immunoglobulins), and connective tissue diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
