The device is a simple chemical indicator strip that relies on a color change reaction and visual comparison to a chart, with no mention of AI or ML in the description or analysis sections.
No
The device is a chemical indicator test strip used to detect the concentration of peracetic acid in a sterilant solution, not to treat a medical condition or perform a medical function on a patient.
No.
The device is a chemical indicator test strip used to detect the concentration of peracetic acid in a sterilant solution, not to diagnose a medical condition in a patient.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical test strip with a reagent pad and a polystyrene strip, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to detect the concentration of peracetic acid in a sterilant solution used in a medical device processor (STERIS SYSTEM 1® Processor). This is a quality control measure for the sterilization process itself, not a test performed on a biological sample from a patient to diagnose a condition or provide information about their health.
- Device Description: The device is a chemical indicator that reacts to the presence of a chemical (peracetic acid) in a solution. It does not interact with or analyze biological samples.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not do that.
This device falls under the category of a chemical indicator used to monitor the effectiveness of a sterilization process for medical devices. While it plays a role in ensuring the safety of medical devices used on patients, it is not an IVD.

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.
(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

SERIM Research Corporation CONFIDENTIAL 510(k) Premarket Notification Serim® Peracetic Acid Chemical Indicator Page 10 of 24 The Serim ® Peracetic Acid Chemical Indicator test strips are Intended Use: designed for use in a STERIS SYSTEM 1® Processor with STERIS 20" Sterilant to detect peracetic acid concentration in the use solution. Technological Characteristics: The Serim® Peracetic Acid Chemical Indicator is identical to the STERIS PROCESS™Chemical Monitoring strip (manufactured by Serim Research Corp. for Steris Corporation) that has been previously cleared by the FDA (K921559): The STERIS PROCESS™Chemical Monitoring Strip was developed by Serim Research Corporation and has been exclusively manufactured by Serim Research Corporation since the product was introduced. The Serim" Peracetic Acid Chemical Indicator will be used for the independent monitoring of the STERIS SYSTEM 1 employing STERIS 201M Sterilant. The Serim* Peracetic Acid Chemical Indicator is a qualitative, single use, chemical indicator used to detect the active ingredient of the STERIS 20TM Sterilant. The Serim* Peracetic Acid Chemical Indicator is configured as a paper pad on a plastic strip support. A dve in the chemical indicator pad is oxidized (bleached) by the use solution. The extent of bleaching indicates whether a sufficient concentration active agent (peracetic acid) was present. At the end of the processing evele the user compares the reacted indicator to a color chart composed of two color blocks. The "START" color block is similar to the unreacted indicator strip. The =COMPLETE color block is similar to an indicator strip that has been exposed to peracetic acid at or above a concentration of 1500 ppm. Serim Research Corporation hereby certifies that it developed Performance and Conclusion: the product known as the STERIS PROCESS™ Chemical Monitoring strip prior to the FDA 510(k) clearance of this product. Serim Research Corporation also has manufactured this material since the introduction of this product. The role of Serim Research Corporation in the development and manufacture of the product is acknowledged on the bottle
