Intended Use
The Homocysteine Microtiter Plate Assay is intended for the quantitative determination of total L-homocysteine in human serum or plasma. The device can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of having hyperhomocysteinemia and homocystinuria.
Device Description
Homocysteine Microplate HPB Assay is an EIA-like assay for the determination of tHcy (L-homocysteine) in blood. The assay employs a genetically engineered Homocysteine Binding Protein (HBP) as the capturing reagent. Plasma samples are pretreated in vials with a reducing agent, TCEP, to reduce the protein bound Hcy to free Hcy that is subsequently converted to S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (SAH) by SAH hydrolase and quantitated by the HBP in a competition assay between free SAH from samples and tracer SAH-HRP conjugate.

No
The description details a biochemical assay based on enzymatic reactions and protein binding, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data analysis or interpretation.

No

Explanation: The device is an in-vitro diagnostic assay used for quantitative determination of homocysteine, assisting in diagnosis. It does not directly provide therapy or treatment.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states: "The device can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of having hyperhomocysteinemia and homocystinuria." This directly indicates its role in diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines a laboratory assay involving reagents, sample pretreatment, and a microplate format, indicating a hardware-dependent chemical process, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of total L-homocysteine in human serum or plasma." This is a test performed on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details an "EIA-like assay" that uses reagents and a microplate format to analyze blood samples. This is a typical setup for an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Specimen Type: The assay uses "human serum or plasma," which are biological specimens.
  • Methodology: The description outlines a biochemical assay process involving reducing agents, enzymes, and a binding protein to measure a substance in the sample. This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic method.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to perform a diagnostic test on biological samples in vitro.

§ 862.1377 Urinary homocystine (nonquantitative) test system.

(a)
Identification. A urinary homocystine (nonquantitative) test system is a device intended to identify homocystine (an analogue of the amino acid cystine) in urine. The identification of urinary homocystine is used in the diagnosis and treatment of homocystinuria (homosystine in urine), a heritable metabolic disorder which may cause mental retardation.(b)
Classification. Class II.
