No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic test used to detect G6PD enzyme activity, aiding in the identification of individuals with G6PD deficiency. It is a diagnostic tool, not a therapeutic one.
Yes
The device is an in vitro enzyme chromatographic test intended to aid in the identification of people with G6PD deficiency by differentiating normal from deficient G6PD activity levels, which is a diagnostic purpose.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical lateral flow test strip with reagents and a visual reading method, indicating it is a hardware-based in vitro diagnostic device, not software only.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the BinaxNOW® G6PD Test is an in vitro enzyme chromatographic test. It is designed to detect G6PD enzyme activity in human venous whole blood, which is a sample taken from the body and tested outside of it.
- Purpose: The test is intended to aid in the identification of people with G6PD deficiency, which is a medical condition. This aligns with the purpose of IVD devices, which are used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions.
- Sample Type: The test uses human venous whole blood, a biological sample.
- Method: It employs an enzyme chromatographic method, which is a laboratory technique performed outside the body.
All of these characteristics are consistent with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The BinaxNOW® G6PD (Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase) Test is an in vitro enzyme chromatographic test for the qualitative detection of G6PD enzyme activity in human venous whole blood, collected in heparin or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). The BinaxNOW® G6PD Test is a visual screening test used for differentiating normal from deficient G6PD activity levels in whole blood and is intended to aid in the identification of people with G6PD deficiency. Samples which generate deficient results should be assayed using a quantitative G6PD test method to verify the deficiency.

Device Description
The BinaxNOW® G6PD test device consists of a lateral flow test strip comprised of a white sample pad and a reaction pad, which is located at the top of the strip. The reaction pad contains the reagents necessary for the G6PD enzymatic reaction and the subsequent reduction of a nitro blue tetrazolium dye into its concomitant blue formazan product. The resulting color change on the strip indicates enough G6PD activity is present to presume the sample is not deficient.
To perform the test, a whole blood sample is mixed with red blood cell (RBC) lysing reagent in a sample preparation vial and then transferred to the test device sample pad. The lysed blood sample migrates up the test strip, reconstituting reagents in the reaction pad. When the sample front (or liquid migration) covers the entire reaction pad, the device is closed.
Test results are read visually. If no change in the red color of the sample front is observed at the test read time, the sample is presumed to be deficient in G6PD enzyme activity. Samples normal in G6PD activity produce a distinct color change – the red sample color changes to a brown / black color on the upper half of the reaction pad.

Summary of Performance Studies
Clinical Performance – BinaxNOW® G6PD Test Method Comparison: The performance of the BinaxNOW® test was compared to a commercially available quantitative G6PD test in a prospective study conducted in 2007-2008 in the U.S. Both heparinized and EDTA whole blood specimens were collected from 246 subjects and were evaluated on the BinaxNOW® test.
Key results: All of the samples that generated a value less than or equal to 2.0 U/gHb on the comparative method generated deficient results on the BinaxNOW® G6PD test. For both sample types, a comparative method cut-off value of 4.2 U/gHb was used in the analysis. For all results less than or equal to 4.2 U/gHb on the comparative method, a deficient BinaxNOW result was considered a correct result. Likewise, for all comparative method results greater than 4.2 U/gHb, a normal BinaxNOW® result was considered a correct result.
Interfering Substances: The BinaxNOW® G6PD test was evaluated for possible interference from high levels of endogenous blood components. Whole blood samples were tested that contained bilirubin (conjugated and unconjugated), triglycerides, total cholesterol, lactate dehydrogenase, or glucose at concentrations above physiological levels. None of the endogenous blood components affected test performance. The presence of an elevated level of copper sulfate, which is known to inhibit G6PD enzyme activity, was also evaluated and did not affect test performance.
Blood samples with abnormally low and high hematocrit levels (17-18% and 54-65% respectively) were evaluated, and test performance was affected as described in the Limitations section of the package insert.
Reproducibility Study - Multiple Operators: A blind study of the BinaxNOW® G6PD Test was conducted at 3 separate sites using panels of blind coded specimens, which included G6PD normal and deficient samples. Participants tested each sample multiple times on 3 different days. There was 98.4% (123/125) agreement with expected test results, with no significant differences within run (replicates tested by one operator), between run (3 different days), between sites (3 sites), or between operators (6 operators).
Precision Study – Single Operator: Blood samples from two individuals were drawn into both EDTA and heparin collection tubes, and all 4 samples were tested in duplicate on the BinaxNOW® test on ten successive days by a single operator. The samples collected from one individual were interpreted as normal 100% of the time. The samples collected from the other individual were interpreted as deficient 100% of the time.

"Normal result" percent agreement = 190 / 194 = 97.9% (Cl = 94.8 - 99.2%)
Overall percent agreement = 238 / 243 = 97.9% (Cl = 95.3 - 99.1%)
% AGREEMENT WITH EDTA SAMPLES:
"Deficient result" percent agreement = 49 / 50 = 98.0% (CI = 89.5 - 99.6%)
"Normal result" percent agreement = 191 / 196 = 97.4% (Cl = 94.2 - 98.9%)
Overall percent agreement = 240 / 246 = 97.6% (CI = 94.8 - 98.9%)
Additionally, BinaxNOW® test results on the heparin samples were the results on the EDTA samples for 240 of the 243 subjects, whose samples generated valid results on both sample types, yielding a percent agreement of 99%.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
Clinical Performance – BinaxNOW® G6PD Test Method Comparison
The performance of the BinaxNOW® test was compared to a commercially available quantitative G6PD test in a prospective study conducted in 2007-2008 in the U.S. Both heparinized and EDTA whole blood specimens were collected from 246 subjects and were evaluated on the BinaxNOW® test.
All of the samples that generated a value less than or equal to 2.0 U/gHb on the comparative method generated deficient results on the BinaxNOW® G6PD test.
The percent agreement analyses and 95% confidence intervals for the BinaxNOW® G6PD test results for detection of G6PD enzyme activity deficiency, as compared to the comparative method, on both heparinized and EDTA blood samples, is provided below. For both sample types, a comparative method cut-off value of 4.2 U/gHb was used in the analysis. For all results less than or equal to 4.2 U/gHb on the comparative method, a deficient BinaxNOW result was considered a correct result. Likewise, for all

comparative method results greater than 4.2 U/gHb, a normal BinaxNOW® result was considered a correct result.
