The Zeus Scientific, Inc. AtheNA Multi-Lyte Rubella IgG Test System is intended for the qualitative detection of IgG class antibody to Rubella virus in human sera by microparticle immunoassay testing on the AtheNA Multi-Lyte Instrument. The results of the AtheNA Multi-Lyte Rubella IgG Test System may be used to determine the serological status of individuals including women of childbearing age.

This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a diagnostic device, not a study report. As such, it does not contain the detailed information about acceptance criteria, device performance, study design, or ground truth establishment that you are requesting.
The letter acknowledges that the device, "AtheNA Multi-Lyte Rubella IgG Test System," is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device for the qualitative detection of IgG class antibody to Rubella virus in human sera.
Therefore, I cannot extract the information requested as it is not present in the provided text.
To answer your questions, I would need access to the actual study report or relevant sections of the 510(k) submission that contain the performance data and methodology.
§ 866.3510 Rubella virus serological reagents.
(a)
Identification. Rubella virus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to rubella virus in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of rubella (German measles) or confirmation of a person's immune status from past infections or immunizations and provides epidemiological information on German measles. Newborns infected in the uterus with rubella virus may be born with multiple congenital defects (rubella syndrome).(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are:(1) National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards':
