The Viramed Biotech AG Borrelia B31 ViraChip® IgG Test Kit is an in vitro qualitative protein microarray assay for the detection of IgG antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi in human serum. It is intended for use in the testing of human serum samples which have been found positive or equivocal using an EIA or IFA test procedure for B. burgdorferi antibodies. Positive results from this assay are supportive evidence of infection with B. burgdorferi, the causative agent for Lyne disease.
The Borrelia B31 ViraChip® IgG Test Kit must be used with a ViraChip® Reader and the ViraChip® Software.

The provided text is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the "Borrelia B31 ViraChip IgG Test Kit." This document does not contain the detailed acceptance criteria and performance study results as it is an approval letter, not the submission itself. The letter states that the FDA has "reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification" and "determined the device is substantially equivalent" to a predicate device.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided text. The information requested, such as specific acceptance criteria for performance metrics (sensitivity, specificity), sample sizes, ground truth establishment methods, or details about comparative effectiveness studies, would typically be found in the manufacturer's 510(k) submission, which is not provided here.
The document does include the "Indications for Use" for the device, which describes its intended purpose.

Dear Dr. Menefee:
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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

§ 866.3830
Treponema pallidum treponemal test reagents.(a)
Identification. Treponema pallidum treponemal test reagents are devices that consist of the antigens, antisera and all control reagents (standardized reagents with which test results are compared) which are derived from treponemal sources and that are used in the fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption test (FTA-ABS), theTreponema pallidum immobilization test (T.P.I.), and other treponemal tests used to identify antibodies toTreponema pallidum directly from infecting treponemal organisms in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of syphilis caused by bacteria belonging to the genusTreponema and provides epidemiological information on syphilis.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
