The document describes a standard immunoassay technology and does not mention any AI or ML components in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.
No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay used to detect antibodies for diagnosis and immune status determination, not to treat a disease.
Yes
The device is explicitly stated to be "an aid in the diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii infection," which is a diagnostic purpose.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components including microparticles, conjugate, assay diluent, calibrators, and controls, which are chemical reagents used in a laboratory immunoassay. This is not a software-only device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the device is used for the "quantitative determination of IgG antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum and plasma" and as an "aid in the detection of immune status to Toxoplasma gondii... and as an aid in the diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii infection." This clearly indicates that the device is intended to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (serum and plasma) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The description details the reagents used (microparticles, conjugate, assay diluent, calibrators, controls) and the technology employed (chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay - CMIA), all of which are components and methods typical of in vitro diagnostic tests.
- Performance Studies: The document describes extensive performance studies, including nonclinical (precision, linearity, specificity) and clinical (expected values, reproducibility, percent agreement) evaluations using human serum and plasma specimens. These types of studies are standard for demonstrating the performance of IVD devices.
- Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K993319; BioMérieux VIDAS TOXO IgG II (TXG) assay) is common in regulatory submissions for IVDs, indicating a comparison to a previously cleared IVD.
All these elements align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

This assay is a two-step immunoassay for the quantitative determination of IgG antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum and plasma using chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) technology. Pre-diluted sample, recombinant Toxoplasma gondii antigen (containing recombinant antigens P30[SAG1] and P35[GRA8]) coated paramagnetic microparticles, and assay diluent are combined and incubated. The Toxoplasma gondii specific antibodies present in the sample bind to the recombinant Toxoplasma gondii antigen (containing recombinant antigens P30[SAG1] and P35[GRA8]) coated microparticles. The mixture is washed. Murine anti-human IgG acridinium-labeled conjugate is added to create a reaction mixture and incubated. Following a wash cycle, Pre-Trigger and Trigger Solutions are added. The resulting chemiluminescent reaction is measured as a relative light unit (RLU). There is a direct relationship between the amount of anti-Toxo IgG in the sample and the RLU detected by the system optics.

§ 866.3780
Toxoplasma gondii serological reagents.(a)
Identification. Toxoplasma gondii serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies toToxoplasma gondii in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent reagents) used to identifyToxoplasma gondii from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis caused by the parasitic protozoanToxoplasma gondii and provides epidemiological information on this disease. Congenital toxoplasmosis is characterized by lesions of the central nervous system, which if undetected and untreated may lead to brain defects, blindness, and death of an unborn fetus. The disease is characterized in children by inflammation of the brain and spinal cord.(b)

Twenty-three of the 24 discordant samples from routine order were tested using the Dye Test resulting in either negative, low positive, or inconclusive interpretation. Two of the 3 ARCHITECT Toxo IgG nonreactive samples were negative by Dye Test, and 1 was inconclusive. One of the 11 ARCHITECT Toxo IgG reactive samples was low positive by Dye Test, 9 were negative, and 1 was inconclusive. Seven of the 9 ARCHITECT equivocal samples were negative by Dye Test, and 2 were low positive.
