No
The document describes a standard immunoassay test system for detecting antibodies and contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
This device is a diagnostic test system used to detect antibodies to the Rubella virus, which helps determine an individual's serological status. It does not treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent disease.

Yes
This device, the AtheNA Multi-Lyte Rubella IgG Test System, is intended for the qualitative detection of IgG class antibody to Rubella virus in human sera, and its results are used to "determine the serological status of individuals." This process of identifying the presence of a disease agent (Rubella virus antibodies) to determine a health status (serological status) falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description is not found, but the intended use clearly describes a "Test System" that performs "microparticle immunoassay testing on the AtheNA Multi-Lyte Instrument." This indicates a hardware component (the instrument) is integral to the device's function, making it a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "qualitative detection of IgG class antibody to Rubella virus in human sera". This involves testing a sample taken from the human body (sera) in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose or provide information about a physiological state (presence of Rubella antibodies).
  • Method: It uses a "microparticle immunoassay testing", which is a common technique used in IVD tests.
  • Purpose: The results are used to "determine the serological status of individuals", which is a diagnostic purpose.

The definition of an IVD is a medical device that is used to examine specimens taken from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device clearly fits that definition.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

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 test has been calibrated to the WHO International Standard for Rubella IgG at the cut-off. The magnitude of the test result above or below the cut-off does not correspond to International Units and is not indicative of total amount of antibody present.

§ 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':
(i) 1/LA6 “Detection and Quantitation of Rubella IgG Antibody: Evaluation and Performance Criteria for Multiple Component Test Products, Speciment Handling, and Use of the Test Products in the Clinical Laboratory, October 1997,”
(ii) 1/LA18 “Specifications for Immunological Testing for Infectious Diseases, December 1994,”
(iii) D13 “Agglutination Characteristics, Methodology, Limitations, and Clinical Validation, October 1993,”
(iv) EP5 “Evaluation of Precision Performance of Clinical Chemistry Devices, February 1999,” and
(v) EP10 “Preliminary Evaluation of the Linearity of Quantitive Clinical Laboratory Methods, May 1998,”

(ii) Reference Panel of Well Characterized Rubella Sera, and
(3) World Health Organization's International Rubella Standard.

Dear Ms. Nadolczak:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of March 21, 2007.

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.
