The Amylase EPS Reagent is used for the quantitative determination of a-Amylase (1,4-α-D-glucan glucanohydrolase EC3.2.1.1) in human serum, plasma or urine on Beckman Coulter SYNCHRON CX ®/ LX ® Systems. a-Amylase is most frequently measured in the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, when serum levels may be grossly elevated.
Amylase EPS Reagent
The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA to Thermo Fisher Scientific regarding the "Amylase EPS Reagent." This document confirms the substantial equivalence of the device to a legally marketed predicate device.
However, the document does not contain any information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria. It is a regulatory approval letter, not a scientific study report.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The document focuses on regulatory approval and mentions the intended use of the reagent (quantitative determination of α-Amylase in human serum, plasma, or urine for diagnosis of acute pancreatitis), but it does not detail any performance metrics, study designs, sample sizes, or ground truth methodologies.

Dear Ms. Lambiris:
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).
