The device description details a traditional immunoassay method involving chemical reactions and visual interpretation of bands. There is no mention of computational analysis, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.
No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic test for detecting antibodies, which is used for diagnostic purposes, not for treating a condition.
Yes
The device is intended for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies to B. burgdorferi sensu stricto (B31) in human serum to provide supportive evidence of infection with B. burgdorferi. This directly aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device as it is used to identify a disease (Lyme disease).
No
The device description clearly outlines a laboratory test kit involving physical components like nitrocellulose strips, reagents, and incubation steps, which are hardware components. It is not solely software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies to B. burgdorferi sensu stricto (B31) in human serum." This is a classic description of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it analyzes a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body to detect a specific analyte (antibodies) for diagnostic purposes (providing supportive evidence of infection).
- Device Description: The description details a laboratory procedure involving the incubation of human serum with antigens on a strip, followed by washing steps and the addition of reagents to visualize a reaction. This entire process is performed in vitro (in a lab setting, outside the body).
- Performance Studies: The document includes various performance studies (Reproducibility, Cross Reactivity, Sensitivity Testing, Analytical Specificity, CDC Reference Panel, Method Comparison) which are standard for evaluating the performance of an IVD device.
- Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K950829; B. burgdorferi (IgG) Marblot Strip Test System) further confirms that this device falls under the category of IVDs, as predicate devices are used for comparison in the regulatory submission process for new IVDs.
All of these elements strongly indicate that the Gold Standard Diagnostics Borrelia burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot Test Kit is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Gold Standard Diagnostics Borrelia burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot Test Kit is intended for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies to B. burgdorferi sensu stricto (B31) in human serum. This test is intended for use in testing human serum samples which have been found positive or equivocal using an ELISA or IFA test procedure to provide supportive evidence of infection with B. burgdorferi.

Device Description
The assay requires a total of 70 minutes incubation time. The test uses purified antigens coated on nitrocellulose strips. Serum is added to each strip and incubated for 30 minutes. If Borrelia burgdorferi antibodies are present they will bind to the antigens on the strips. Unbound serum is removed by washing the wells three times. An enzyme-conjugated anti-human IgG is then added to each strip and incubated for 30 minutes. If antibody is present, it will bind to the antibody attached to the antigen on the strip. The wells are again washed three times followed by a DI water wash to remove any unbound conjugate. After unbound conjugate has been removed by a further washing step, a visualization of the antigen-antibody complex is accomplished by the addition of a substrate which forms blue-violet precipitates at each site (antigen bands). The reaction is stopped by washing the nitrocellulose strip with distilled or deionized water. Depending on the observed band pattern one can interpret the presence of specific IgG antibodies to B. burgdorferi infection.

Cross Reactivity
A cross reactivity study was performed on 215 specimens known to contain potentially cross reactive antibodies to B. burgdorferi. Sera from patients with infections and sera from patients with diagnoses that can be confused with the late manifestations of Lyme disease were tested. The results are summarized in the following table:

Two of the 20 Babesiosis samples and one of the 23 Tick-borne relapsing fever / Rickettsial Disease specimens were positive on the Gold Standard Diagnostics B. burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot Test. These samples were also tested on the predicate device which also gave positive results.
Interfering Substances
The effect of potential interfering substances on samples using the Gold Standard Diagnostics B. burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot Test was evaluated. High levels of hemoglobin, bilirubin, cholesterol and intralipids in serum samples were tested on six sera (two positives, one low The recommended concentrations in the positive, one high negative, and two negatives). guideline "Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry" from the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute were used. The interferents at the concentrations tested did not have any influence on the band pattern. A small variability in band intensity was seen that is in the normal

range of deviation and did not change the final interpretation. The results are summarized in the following table:
Substance | Concentration | Interference |
---|---|---|
Hemoglobin | 2 g/L | None detected |
Bilirubin | 342 µmol/L | None detected |
Cholesterol | 13 mmol/L | None detected |
Intralipids | 37 mmol/L | None detected |
Specimen Collection and Handling Conditions
A study was performed to substantiate the specimen storage and handling conditions for the Gold Standard Diagnostics B. burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot Test. Three samples were tested in triplicate after the following storage conditions:
A) 2-8ºC for 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144 and 168 hours.
B) Room temperature for 2, 6 and 8 hours.
C) After 1, 5 and 10 freeze and thaw cycles.
The samples gave consistent results for all testing parameters above, therefore the specimens can be held at 2-8°C for at least 168 hours or at room temperature for up to 8 hours and withstand up to 10 freeze and thaw cycles.
8) Clinical Testing
Sensitivity Testing
A sensitivity study was performed on 100 clinically characterized samples obtained from Allen C. Steere, MD at the Massachusetts General Hospital. The samples encompass early, disseminated, and late stages of Lyme disease. The results are summarized in the following table:
| | Number of
Samples | Line Blot Sensitivity

Analytical Specificity (endemic & non-endemic)
For the determination of analytical specificity, testing of 234 asymptomatic samples (blood donors) from both endemic and non-endemic regions was performed. The results are summarized in the following table:
| Region | Number of
Samples | Number Positive | Analytical Specificity |
|-------------|----------------------|-----------------|------------------------|
| Endemic | 115 | 2 | 98.6% |
| Non-endemic | 119 | 0 | 100% |
CDC Reference Panel
A standard panel of positive and negative specimens provided by the Center of Disease Control (CDC) for Lyme disease detection was tested both on the Gold Standard Diagnostics B. burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot Test and on the predicate device. The results are summarized in the following table:
Stage | Total | GSD Line Blot % Agreement | Predicate Device % Agreement |
---|---|---|---|
Healthy | 5 | 100% (5/5) | 100% (5/5) |
Early | |||
(0-2 months) | 15 | 93.3% (14/15) | 100% (15/15) |

Late | |||
(years) | 7 | 100% (7/7) | 85.7% (6/7) |
Method Comparison
The performance of the Gold Standard Diagnostics B. burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot test was determined by conducting a prospective clinical study at three different geographic sites (Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and California) in the U.S. The patient samples were tested by an anti-B. burgdorferi ELISA test first and the resulting equivocal and positive specimens were tested on the Gold Standard Diagnostics B. burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot test and a commercially available B. burgdorferi IgG Blot test. The results are summarized in the following table:

The discrepant samples were tested on a second commercially available assay. On the one Line Blot negative sample that was positive by the predicate, the second assay gave a negative result. Of the two Line Blot positive and predicate negative samples, the second assay called one sample negative and the other sample positive.
9) Conclusion
From the performance data and kit comparison above, it is our conclusion that the Gold Standard Diagnostics B. burgdorferi B31 IgG Line Blot Test Kit is substantially equivalent to the B. burgdorferi (IgG) Marblot Strip Test System (K950829) commercially marketed by Trinity Biotech.
