The Diazyme Human Kappa Free Light Chain Assay is intended as a latex particle enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay for the quantitative determination of Kappa Free Light Chain (FLC) concentration in serum on validated analyzers. The measurement of Kappa FLC in conjunction with Lambda FLC aids in the diagnosis and monitoring of multiple myeloma in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings. For in-vitro diagnostic use only.
The Diazyme Human Lambda Free Light Chain Assay is intended as a latex particle enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay for the quantitative determination of Lambda Free Light Chain (FLC) concentration in serum on validated analyzers. The measurement of Lambda FLC in conjunction with Kappa FLC aids in the diagnosis and monitoring of multiple mycloma in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings. For in-vitro diagnostic use only.

This document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for Diazyme Human Kappa Free Light Chain Assay and Diazyme Human Lambda Free Light Chain Assay. It describes the indications for use of the devices but does not contain any information regarding the acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets the acceptance criteria.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided text. To answer your questions, I would need a different document, such as a summary of safety and effectiveness data, a clinical study report, or a 510(k) summary that details the performance studies and acceptance criteria for these specific diagnostic assays.
§ 866.5550 Immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system.
(a)
Identification. An immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques both kappa and lambda types of light chain portions of immunoglobulin molecules in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. In some disease states, an excess of light chains are produced by the antibody-forming cells. These free light chains, unassociated with gamma globulin molecules, can be found in a patient's body fluids and tissues. Measurement of the various amounts of the different types of light chains aids in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma (cancer of antibody-forming cells), lymphocytic neoplasms (cancer of lymphoid tissue), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (increased production of large immunoglobulins), and connective tissue diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.(b)
