The summary describes a traditional electrophoresis test kit and densitometry for quantification, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
The device is described as a test kit for identifying hemoglobins using electrophoresis, and an "in vitro diagnostic" device, which indicates it is for diagnosis and not treatment.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the test kit is for "qualitative and semiquantitative determination of normal hemoglobins... as well as certain abnormal or variant hemoglobins" and provides a "valuable screening method for hemoglobin patterns." These are typical functions of a diagnostic device, aiming to identify a condition or abnormality. Furthermore, it explicitly mentions "in vitro diagnosis" in the second paragraph.
No
The device description is not found, but the intended use and mentions of densitometry and an "automated Microgel instrument" strongly suggest this is a hardware-based electrophoresis system with associated reagents, not a software-only device.
Yes, based on the provided text, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Explicit Statement: The text for the Microgel Acid Hemoglobin Electrophoresis kit explicitly states it is "for in vitro diagnes and of". While there's a typo, the clear intent is "in vitro diagnostics".
- Intended Use: Both test kits are described as being used for the "qualitative and semiquantitative determination" or "identification" of hemoglobins. This involves testing biological samples (blood, presumably) outside of the body to diagnose or screen for conditions related to hemoglobin. This is a core function of IVDs.
- Test Kit: The description refers to the products as "test kits," which are commonly used in IVD applications.
Therefore, the intended use and the explicit statement in the description strongly indicate that these devices are IVDs.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Microgel Alkaline Hemoglobin Electrophoresis test kit is intended for qualitative and semiquantitative determination of normal hemoglobins (A1, A2 and F) as well as certain abnormal or variant hemoglobins (S or D and C or E) using agarose gel. To distinguish hemoglobins S from D or C from E an alternate confirmatory test such as acid hemoglish hemoglobin electrophoresis is necessary. The electrophoretic test is performed at allialine pH and provides a valuable screening method for hemoglobin patterns. Densitometry of the pattern allows the relative quantification of hemogram patism belief allows the pattern allows the relative automated Microod instrument automated Microgel instrument.
The Microgel Acid Hemoglobin Electrophoresis kit is a qualitative test for the identification of both normal and abnomal or variant hemoglobins, and to confirm the identify of clinication of hemoglobins such as A. E. Gand O. Th hemoglobins such as A, F, S and C. The Acid Hemoglobin test kit employs agarose gel at acidic pH and is for in vitro diagnes and of The Rold Hemoglouin test Kit Employs agarose gel at acidid Microgel instrument Microgel instrument.

Trade/Device Name: Microgel Hemoglobin Test Systems by Electrophoresis Regulation Number: 21 CFR § 864.7440 Regulation Name: Electrophoretic Hemoglobin Analysis System Regulatory Class: II Product Code: JBD Dated: June 2, 2006 Received: June 5, 2006
Dear Mr. Lehnus:
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.
