MoFi is a liquid culture medium intended for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications.
Device Description
MoFi is a basal medium based on Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium (IMDM) and cell-degradabe polysaccharide, made of water, carbohydrate, amino acid and salt. It can be mixed with various serums or additional additives to form a complete medium, which can be used to culture suspension/adherent primary cultured cells or cell lines. MoFi provides cells with energy to maintain survival and promote growth.

The summary describes a cell culture medium and its performance characteristics, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

No.
This device is a culture medium used for processing human tissue and cell cultures ex vivo, not for direct therapeutic application in patients.

No

MoFi is a liquid culture medium used for growing cells ex vivo, providing nutrients for their survival and growth, not for diagnosing diseases or conditions. The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section specifies its use in "human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications."

No

The device description clearly states it is a liquid culture medium, which is a physical substance, not software.

Based on the provided information, yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications." While not a direct diagnostic test itself, the medium is intended for use in the processing of human tissues and cells outside the body (ex vivo). This processing is often a crucial step in various diagnostic procedures, such as cell culture for identifying pathogens, genetic testing, or preparing samples for other diagnostic analyses.
  • Device Description: The description details its composition as a liquid culture medium for culturing human cells. This aligns with the typical function of IVD reagents and media used in laboratory settings for diagnostic purposes.
  • Regulatory Language: The statement "When used as a medical device, Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician" is a strong indicator that the device is regulated as a medical device, and given its intended use, it falls under the IVD category.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device listed (K100616; KnockoutTM SR Medium and KnockoutTM SR Xenofree Medium) are also cell culture media used in laboratory settings, often for applications that include diagnostic procedures. This further supports the classification of MoFi as an IVD.

While the document doesn't describe a direct diagnostic test performed by the device itself, its role in the processing of human samples for potential diagnostic use places it within the scope of IVD regulation. IVDs are not limited to devices that directly provide a diagnostic result, but also include reagents, instruments, and systems intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body for the purpose of providing information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The results showed that both KSR and MoFi passed the acceptance criteria of cell viability, and the cell morphology of four kinds of cells cultured in both MoFi and the predicate is normal and typical. This indicates that MoFi possess an equivalent function as the predicate and no safety issues occur.

"MoFi" Cell Culture Basal Medium

510(k) Premarket Notification

5. Shelf Life

According to the stability test's result, shelf life for MoFi is recommended to be 9 months.

6. Biocompatibility

The biocompatibility evaluation was conducted in accordance with the FDA Guidance "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1,"Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process.

7. Performance Testing

All batches tested met the acceptance criteria of performance testing. The residual endotoxin is well controlled. No bacteria and mycoplasma were detected. The residues of plasticizers, heavy metals and particles are not detected or can be safely ignored.

8. Conclusion

MoFi and Knockout™ SR Medium and Knockout™ SR Xenofree Medium are used for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications and have the same/similar container, storage temperature, efficacy (generic cellular growth and maintenance) and safety (consistency in chemical content and formulation, biocompatibility with cells, and purity). Their efficacy in supporting the survival, growth, development, and maintenance of human cells or tissue culture systems has been well established in scientific publications included in this submission. These products (MoFi and Knockout™ SR Medium and Knockout™ SR Xenofiree Medium) are manufactured in accordance with QSR requirements and are labeled as aseptically processed. Thus, MoFi are substantially equivalent to the legally marketed device (K100616) intended for the human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications.
