Device Description
The Beta-2-Microglobulin reagent kit is a System Reagent for the Quantitative determination of ß-2-Microglobulin (ß-2-M) in human serum on Beckman Coulter AU analyzers. The ßeta-2-Microglobulin kit is a liquid, ready to use and consists of 4 x 10mL R1 reagent vials and 4 x 8mL R2 reagent vials. Immune complexes formed in solution scatter light in proportion to their size, shape and concentration. Turbidimeters measure the reduction of incident light due to reflection, absorption, or scatter. In the procedure, the measurement of the decrease in light transmitted (increase in absorbance) through particles suspended in solution as a result of complexes formed during the antigen-antibody reaction, is the basis of this assay. The ßeta-2-Microglobulin reagent is designed for optimal performance on Beckman Coulter AU analyzers.

No
The description details a standard turbidimetric immunoassay reagent kit and its performance characteristics, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic reagent used for the quantitative determination of a specific substance in human serum, not for treating or preventing a disease.

Yes

This device is a diagnostic device as indicated by "For In Vitro Diagnostic use only" in the "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section. It quantitatively determines ß-2-Microglobulin, which is a common diagnostic marker.

No

The device is a reagent kit, which is a physical product containing liquid reagents for laboratory testing. It is not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "For In Vitro Diagnostic use only."
  • Nature of the Device: The device is a "System reagent for the quantitative determination of ß-2-Microglobulin (ß-2-M) in human serum". This describes a product used to test a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body (in vitro) to obtain diagnostic information (quantitative determination of a substance).
  • Mechanism: The description of the device and its mechanism (turbidimetry based on antigen-antibody reaction) is consistent with an in vitro diagnostic assay.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device is definitively an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies

Stability: On-Board and Calibration Frequency. Testing was performed using one reagent lot. Calibration was performed on the first day. Controls were run to check calibration and the reagent. Linearity was run on the last number of shots of reagent. The maximum time point exceeded the claim. Calibration was performed again at day 90. A 90 day reagent on-board claim and a 90-day calibration frequency claim was established.

Dear Ms. Carr:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of June 7, 2016.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
