This product is to be used in a diagnostic laboratory setting, by qualified laboratory technologists, for the quantitative kinetic determination of gamma glutamyl transferase in serum. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use only. The determination of gamma glutamyl transferase in serum is most commonly performed for the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases such as alcoholic cirrhosis and secondary liver tumors.
Liquid GGT (Gamma Glutamyl Transferase) Reagent Set
This document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for a "Liquid GGT (Gamma Glutamyl Transferase) Reagent Set." It confirms that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. However, this letter does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and study details for device performance.
The letter focuses on regulatory approval, classification, and general controls, rather than a detailed technical performance study report.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the provided text. To answer your questions, I would need a different type of document, such as a summary of safety and effectiveness, a clinical study report, or a detailed device performance validation report.

Dear Mr. Walters:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance to 895. with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Regulations.

Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770)488-7655.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) Additionally, for questions on the promotion and 594-4588. advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
