Intended Use
The TC Matrix Clinical Chemistry Analyzer is a discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use. The device is intended to duplicate manual analytical procedures by automatically various steps such as pipetting, heating, and measuring color intensity. This device is intended for use in conjunction with certain materials to measure a variety of analytes of clinical interest in serum, plasma samples. TECO MULTI Calibrator is intended for the calibration of quantitative assays. Teco Albumin reagent is intended to measure the albumin concentration in serum and plasma. Albumin measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases involving primarily the liver or kidneys. Teco ALT reagent is intended to measure the activity of the enzyme alanine amino transferase (ALT) (also known as a serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase or SGPT) in serum and plasma. Alanine amino transferase measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of certain liver diseases (e.g., viral hepatitis and cirrhosis) and heart diseases. Teco Glucose reagent is intended for the quantitative determination of total glucose in human serum or plasma. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma. Teco BUN reagent is intended to measure urea nitrogen (an end-product of nitrogen metabolism) in serum or plasma. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of certain renal and metabolic diseases.

No
The description focuses on automated laboratory procedures (pipetting, heating, measuring color intensity) and standard chemical analysis, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data interpretation, pattern recognition, or decision support.

No
The device is a chemistry analyzer and reagents used for diagnostic purposes by measuring analytes in samples; it does not directly treat or prevent a disease.

Yes
The device is intended to measure various analytes in biological samples, and these measurements are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases." This directly aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "discrete photometric chemistry analyzer" that performs physical actions like pipetting, heating, and measuring color intensity, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the device is for "clinical use" and is used to "measure a variety of analytes of clinical interest in serum, plasma samples." This aligns directly with the definition of an in vitro diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device performs analytical procedures on samples, which is a core function of an IVD.
  • Associated Reagents: The description of the associated reagents (Calibrator, Albumin, ALT, Glucose, BUN) further confirms the IVD nature. These reagents are specifically designed to be used with the analyzer to perform diagnostic tests on biological samples. The intended use of each reagent also clearly states their purpose in measuring specific analytes for diagnostic and treatment purposes.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the TC Matrix Clinical Chemistry Analyzer and its associated reagents are intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

§ 862.2160 Discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use.

(a)
Identification. A discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use is a device intended to duplicate manual analytical procedures by performing automatically various steps such as pipetting, preparing filtrates, heating, and measuring color intensity. This device is intended for use in conjunction with certain materials to measure a variety of analytes. Different models of the device incorporate various instrumentation such as micro analysis apparatus, double beam, single, or dual channel photometers, and bichromatic 2-wavelength photometers. Some models of the device may include reagent-containing components that may also serve as reaction units.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 862.9.
