Immunoturbidimetric assay for the in vitro quantitative determination of rheumatoid factors in human serum and plasma on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. Measurements may be used as an aid in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis.

Device Description

The Tina-quant® Rheumatoid Factors II Test System is a particle enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay. Latex-bound heat inactivated IgG (antigen) reacts with the RF-antibodies in the sample to form antigen/antibody complexes which, following agglutination, are measured turbidimetrically.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Tina-quant® RF II Test System, a medical device for in vitro diagnostic use. It describes the device, its intended use, and claims substantial equivalence to a previously marketed device. However, it does not contain information about acceptance criteria, a study proving the device meets those criteria, or any of the detailed study parameters requested in the prompt.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the given text. The document is primarily a regulatory submission, not a detailed study report.

Dear Ms. Coenen:

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 Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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 Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin 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.
