Intended Use
The QUANTA Lite™ h-tTG Screen is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the semi-quantitative detection of IgA and IgG antibodies to human tissue transglutaminase (htTG) in human serum. The presence of these antibodies can be used in conjunction with clinical findings and other laboratory tests to aid in the diagnosis of both IgA sufficient and IgA deficient celiac disease as well as dermatitis herpetiformis.
Device Description
Each device contains the following: polystyrene microplate strips with breakaway (12 (1x8) microwells coated with human tissue transglutaminase antigen with holder; high positive, low positive and negative controls (human serum); HRP wash concentrate; HRP sample diluent; HRP IgG and IgA (goat) anti-human conjugate; TMB chromogen; and HRP stop solution (0.344M sulfuric acid).
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard ELISA kit for detecting antibodies and does not mention any AI or ML components in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No
This device is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) test used to detect antibodies for diagnostic purposes, not to treat or prevent a disease.

Yes
The device is described as an "enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)" for detecting antibodies, and its intended use is "to aid in the diagnosis of both IgA sufficient and IgA deficient celiac disease as well as dermatitis herpetiformis." This clearly indicates its role in disease diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly lists physical components such as microplate strips, controls, and various chemical solutions, indicating it is a hardware-based diagnostic kit, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "semi-quantitative detection of IgA and IgG antibodies to human tissue transglutaminase (htTG) in human serum." This involves testing a sample taken from the human body (serum) outside of the body (in vitro) to provide information for diagnosis.
  • Device Description: The components listed (microplate strips, controls, reagents) are typical of an ELISA kit, which is a common type of in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Clinical Context: The intended use also states that the results are used "in conjunction with clinical findings and other laboratory tests to aid in the diagnosis of both IgA sufficient and IgA deficient celiac disease as well as dermatitis herpetiformis." This clearly indicates its role in the diagnostic process.

L. Test Principle:

Native human tissue transglutaminase is bound to the wells of a polystyrene microwell plate under conditions that will preserve the antigen in its native state. Prediluted controls and diluted patient sera are added to separate wells, allowing any htTG IgA or IgG antibodies present to bind to the immobilized antigen. Unbound sample is washed away and an enzyme labeled anti-human IgA and IgG conjugate is added to each well. A second incubation allows the enzyme labeled anti-human IgA and IgG to bind to any patient antibodies, which have become attached to the microwells. After washing away any unbound enzyme labeled anti-human IgA and IgG, the remaining enzyme activity is measured by adding a chromogenic substrate and measuring the intensity of the color that develops. The assay can be evaluated spectrophotometrically by measuring and comparing the color intensity that develops in the patient wells with the color in the control wells

Intra-assay Performance of QUANTA Lite™ h-tTG Screen ELISA

The inter-assay precision was determined by testing twelve serum samples in duplicate six times for five days on one kit lot by one operator. Results showed that 5 samples with high anti-h-tTG concentrations (31.3-49.3 units) had %CV of 2.2-9.3%, 3 samples close to the cut-off (16.0-23.0 units) had % CV of 4.8-11.3% and 4 negative samples (5.2-14.5units) had %CV of 6.1-18.4% (see table below).
