Intended Use
Blastomere Biopsy Pipettes: The intended use of the Blastomere Biopsy Pipettes is for removal of blastomere(s) from embryos, which may be done in order to perform preimplantation genetic diagnosis on the genetic material in the biopsied cell(s). Polar Body Biopsy Pipettes: The intended use of the Polar Body Biopsy Pipettes is for removal of polar bodies from oocytes, which may be done in order to perform preimplantation genetic diagnosis on the genetic material in the biopsied cell(s).
Device Description
The Blastomere Biopsy Pipettes are very fine glass pipettes used in IVF/Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART) laboratories for the aspiration of blastomere(s) from embryos for the purpose of preimplantation genetic diagnosis. These pipettes have an inner diameters varying from 18-42 um based customer's preferences and the stage of the embryos being biopsied. The tip may be flat or beveled at 45 degrees, then fire polished, and bended to 10 - 45 degrees or straight. The Polar Body Biopsy Pipettes are very fine glass pipettes tools used in IVF/Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART) laboratories for the aspiration of polar bodies from oocytes and embryos for the purpose of preimplantation genetic diagnosis. These pipettes have an inner diameters varying from 13-15 um. The tip may be flat or beveled at 45 degrees, then fire polished, and bended to 10-45 degrees or straight. Some of the tip may be pulled to form a sharp spike after polishing based customer's preferences. These devices are intended for one-time use and will be marked sterile. These devices are manufactured entirely from borosilicate glass. They are manufactured to specific sizes or the size may be modified to meet customer specifications, following procedures of the Sunlight Quality System. The final products are batch tested as part of a quality assurance program using Mouse Embryo Toxicity testing and endotoxin testing. The acceptance specifications of these tests are ≥80% of 2-cell mouse embryos to blastocysts and endotoxin ≤ 0.5 EU/device.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on physical characteristics and materials of glass pipettes used for manual aspiration, with no mention of software, algorithms, or automated analysis.

No
The devices are used for sample collection (biopsy) for genetic diagnosis, not for treating or curing a disease or condition. They are diagnostic tools for preimplantation genetic diagnosis.

No

These devices are tools used for the removal of cells (blastomeres or polar bodies) for the purpose of preimplantation genetic diagnosis. They are not the diagnostic device themselves; rather, they enable the collection of samples that will then be sent for genetic diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states that the devices are "very fine glass pipettes" and are "manufactured entirely from borosilicate glass," indicating they are physical hardware devices, not software.

Based on the provided information, these devices are not IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: An IVD is a medical device that is used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Blastomere Biopsy Pipettes and Polar Body Biopsy Pipettes are tools used to obtain a sample (blastomeres or polar bodies) from an embryo or oocyte. They are not used to perform a test on that sample to provide diagnostic information.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the removal of the cells is done in order to perform preimplantation genetic diagnosis. The diagnosis itself is performed on the genetic material in the biopsied cells, likely using a separate IVD device or process.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the pipettes (material, size, shape) and their function in the biopsy process. It does not describe any analytical or diagnostic capabilities.

In summary, these pipettes are instruments used in a procedure (biopsy) that is a step in a larger process (preimplantation genetic diagnosis). They are not the devices that perform the diagnostic test itself.
