The resulting electrophoregrams are automatically evaluated for pattern abnormalities with identification of normal and pathological patterns. The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument uses the principle of capillary electrophoresis in free solution which is the most common form of capillary electrophoresis. With this technique, charged molecules are separated by their electrophoretic mobility in an alkaline buffer with a specific pH. Separation also occurs according to the electrolyte pH and electroosmotic flow. The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument has silica capillaries functioning in parallel allowing 12 simultaneous analyses. A sample dilution with hemolysing solution is prepared and injected by aspiration at the anodic end of the capillary. A high voltage protein separation is then performed and direct detection of the hemoglobins is made at the cathodic end of the capillary at 415 nm. which is the absorbance wavelength specific to hemoglobins. Before each run. the capillaries are washed with a wash solution and prepared for the next analysis with buffer. The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS performs all sequences automatically to obtain a complete hemoglobin profile for the qualitative analysis of hemoglobins. The assay is performed on the hemolysate of whole blood samples previously collected on Guthrie filter paper and punched to obtain a paper circle. By using alkaline pH buffer. normal and abnormal (or variant) hemoglobins are detected in the following order. from cathode to anode: C, A2, E, S, D, F, degraded F, A, degraded A and Bart's. Variants generated by the mutation of the y chain may appear in different zones of the electrophoretic pattern. The carbonic anhydrase is not visualized on the hemoglobin electrophoretic patterns with capillary electrophoresis.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

A) Precision:
Eight (8) different samples were analyzed using the CAPI 3 NEONAT Hb procedure used on the CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument. The samples included 6 new-born whole blood samples (with FA, FAS, FAC, FAD, FAE and FA Bart's patterns) and 2 controls.

  • For the between capillaries precision, each sample was analyzed once on the 12 capillaries of 1 instrument with 1 reagent lot, through 1 run.
  • For the between lots precision, for 3 days, same samples were analyzed once per run over 2 runs (with a minimum of 2 hours between both runs), on 1 instrument with 1 reagent lot per day (total of 3 lots).
  • For the between instruments precision, within the same day, same samples were analyzed once per run over 2 runs (with a minimum of 2 hours between both runs), on 3 instruments with 1 reagent lot.
  • For the between days precision, every day, for 5 days, same samples were analyzed once per run over 2 runs (with a minimum of 2 hours between both runs) on 1 instrument with 1 reagent lot.

Precision using controls as per CLSI EP05-A3 general study design:
Two (2) different control samples (with FA and AFSC patterns) were analyzed using the CAPI 3 NEONAT Hb procedure used on the CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument.

  • For the within-laboratory precision, each sample was analyzed once on the 12 capillaries of 1 instrument with 1 lot of reagents, through 2 runs per day during 20 days.
  • For the between-lots precision, during 5 days, same samples were analyzed 3 times per run over 2 runs (with a minimum of 2 hours between both runs), on 1 instrument with 3 lots of reagents.

Common interfering factors (conjugated bilirubin, unconjugated bilirubin, and triglycerides) were evaluated at listed concentrations in studies based on CLSI EP7-A2 and EP07, 3rd Edition guidelines.

C) Qualitative Method Comparison with Predicate Device:

  • Internal study: 138 different new-born whole blood samples and 67 pathological samples with hemoglobin variants (S, C, D, E and Bart's) were analyzed. Samples were provided by 5 laboratories in France, Thailand, and Panama, and prepared according to the instructions for use of each technique. Comparison was made with a commercially available capillary electrophoresis procedure for hemoglobin analysis (reference). Study based on CLSI EP12-A2 guideline.
  • External study No. 1: 411 different new-born whole blood samples (210 normal, 201 pathological with hemoglobin variants S, C, D, E and Bart's) were analyzed. Samples were analyzed in a laboratory in the United States of America. All samples followed the same guidelines in regard to sample integrity and were prepared according to instructions for use.

1. DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS

The CAPI 3 NEONAT Hb kit is intended for the detection of normal hemoglobins (F and A) and abnormal hemoglobins (S, C, E, D and Bart's) in blood from human new-born collected on filter paper. The resulting electrophoregrams are automatically evaluated for pattern abnormalities with identification of normal and pathological patterns.

The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument uses the principle of capillary electrophoresis in free solution which is the most common form of capillary electrophoresis. With this technique, charged molecules are separated by their electrophoretic mobility in an alkaline buffer with a specific pH. Separation also occurs according to the electrolyte pH and electroosmotic flow.

The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument has silica capillaries functioning in parallel allowing 12 simultaneous analyses. A sample dilution with hemolysing solution is prepared and injected by aspiration at the anodic end of the capillary. A high voltage protein separation is then performed and direct detection of the hemoglobins is made at the cathodic end of the capillary at 415 nm. which is the absorbance wavelength specific to hemoglobins. Before each run. the capillaries are washed with a wash solution and prepared for the next analysis with buffer.

The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS performs all sequences automatically to obtain a complete hemoglobin profile for the qualitative analysis of hemoglobins. The assay is performed on the hemolysate of whole blood samples previously collected on Guthrie filter paper and punched to obtain a paper circle.

By using alkaline pH buffer. normal and abnormal (or variant) hemoglobins are detected in the following order. from cathode to anode: C, A2, E, S, D, F, degraded F, A, degraded A and Bart's. Variants generated by the mutation of the y chain may appear in different zones of the electrophoretic pattern. The carbonic anhydrase is not visualized on the hemoglobin electrophoretic patterns with capillary electrophoresis.

6. ANALYTICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

A) Precision

Between capillaries, between lots, between instruments, and between days precision.

Eight (8) different samples were analyzed using the CAPI 3 NEONAT Hb procedure used on the CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument. The samples included 6 new-born whole blood samples (with FA, FAS, FAC, FAD, FAE and FA Bart's patterns) and 2 controls.

  • For the between capillaries precision, each sample was analyzed once on the 12 capillaries of i 1 instrument with 1 reagent lot, through 1 run.
  • For the between lots precision, for 3 days, same samples were analyzed once per run over 2 i runs (with a minimum of 2 hours between both runs), on 1 instrument with 1 reagent lot per day (total of 3 lots).
  • For the between instruments precision, within the same day, same samples were analyzed once i per run over 2 runs (with a minimum of 2 hours between both runs), on 3 instruments with 1 reagent lot.
  • For the between days precision, every day, for 5 days, same samples were analyzed once per run i over 2 runs (with a minimum of 2 hours between both runs) on 1 instrument with 1 reagent lot.

B) Analytical Specificity/Interference

Endogenous interference

The common interfering factors with the CAPI 3 NEONAT Hb procedure used on the CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument (conjugated bilirubin. unconjugated bilirubin and triglycerides) were evaluated in studies based on the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI - USA) EP7-A2 quideline "Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry; Approved Guideline - Second Edition" and the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI - USA) EP07. 3rd Edition guideline "Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry".

The results are summarized below.

No interference with the CAPI 3 NEONAT Hb procedure used on the CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument was detected due to the new-born whole blood sample's high concentration of the following interfering factors tested at levels up to the concentrations listed below:

Endogenous interfering factorConcentration
Conjugated bilirubin40 mg/dL
Unconjugated bilirubin40 mg/dL
Triglycerides1500 mg/dL
