No
The device description focuses on the physical materials and chemical coatings used to inactivate viruses, with no mention of AI or ML for analysis, prediction, or any other function.
No.
The primary purpose of the device is to inactivate viruses on its surface to prevent transmission, primarily functioning as a barrier rather than directly treating a disease or condition in a patient. Its intended use is to protect the patient and operating room personnel from microorganism transfer.
No
The device is a surgical facemask intended to inactivate influenza viruses and protect wearers and patients from microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. It does not perform any diagnostic function.
No
The device is a physical surgical facemask with treated layers, not a software program.
Based on the provided text, the BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemask is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the patient and the wearer from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic function.
- Mechanism of Action: The mask inactivates viruses on its surface. While this involves a chemical reaction with biological material (viruses), it is not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies described are laboratory (in vitro) tests demonstrating the mask's ability to inactivate viruses on its surface. These are not studies evaluating the mask's ability to diagnose a disease or measure a substance in a biological sample.
- Lack of Diagnostic Claims: The text explicitly states that "Correlation between in vitro testing results and any clinical event has not been tested" and "No clinical studies have been conducted comparing the ability of an untreated facemask and these facemasks to protect the wearer from Influenza infection." This further reinforces that the device is not intended for diagnosis.
IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. The BioFriend™ BioMask™ does not perform this function. It is a medical device with a barrier and inactivation function.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemasks are single use disposable devices with a hydrophilic plastic coating on the outer layer (active ingredient: citric acid 2% w/w, a pH lowering agent), and a second inner layer treated with metal ions (active ingredients: copper 1.6% w/w and zinc 1.6% w/w, which form ionic bonds with negatively-charged side-groups on influenza viruses).
The BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemasks inactivate 99.99% of Influenza viruses on five minutes contact with the surface of the facemask in laboratory (in vitro) tests against the following seasonal, pandemic, avian, swine and equine influenza viruses: influenza A subtypes and strains: H1N1 (the 2009 pandemic flu subtype A/California/07/09, A/Brisbane/59/2007, A/Wisconsin/10/98, A/New Jersev/8/76. A/PR/8/38), A/PR/8/38 H3N2 (A/Brisbane/10/2007.A/Wisconsin/67/2005.). H2N2 (A/2JAPAN/305/57); the bird flu subtypes: H5N1 (NIBRG-14), H9N2 (A/Turkey/Wisconsin/1966), H5N2 (A/Duck/PA/10218/84); the swine flu subtype: H1N1 (A/Swine/1976/31); the equine flu subtype: H3N8 (A/Equine/2/Miami/63); and Influenza B strains: (B/Florida/4/2006, B/Lee/40), under tested contact conditions. Correlation between in vitro testing results and any clinical event has not been tested.
There are two models: (1) Universal (BF-200-2001A) - a standard flat mask with pleats; (2) Premium (BF-200-3013A) - flat-folded and expanding into a convex-shaped mask with ear adjusters and an antifog nose flap. No clinical studies have been conducted comparing the ability of an untreated facemask and these facemasks to protect the wearer from Influenza infection. They are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures, to protect both the surgical patient, and the operating room personnel, from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids and particulate material.

5.7 Summary of Technological Characteristics
The BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemasks have substantially equivalent filter and barrier properties as the predicate device, and conform to the recognized FDA consensus standard ASTM F2100-07 Standard Specification for Performance of Materials used in Medical Face Masks. Both models of the BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemask are constructed from the same materials and lavers, and are identical in all respects other than shape. The outer layer of both models is coated with a hydrophilic plastic that allows aerosolized droplets contacting the surface of the mask to be rapidly absorbed into the inner layers. Both the outer and second inner layers are treated with different compounds that independently inactivate viruses through different mechanisms of action. Laboratory (in vitro) test results demonstrate that the BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemasks inactivate 99.99% (≥4-logs) of 15 different strains of Influenza A and B viruses, including the circulating 2009 pandemic H1N1, recent vaccine isolates, major reassortments and avian, swine and equine isolates after 5 minutes contact with the mask surface.
The BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemasks have been tested for, and appropriately passed standardized tests for, fluid penetration resistance, particulate filtration efficiency, bacterial filtration efficiency, flammability, and breathing resistance. The device as a whole has been shown to be biocompatible through standardized tests for irritation, sensitization and extractables.
The materials of construction used in the BioFriend™ BioMask™ surgical facemasks are equivalent to those of the predicate devices as a whole are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
