The summary describes a laboratory assay (EIA) that measures a specific biological marker (TCC) using a monoclonal antibody. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The performance evaluation uses standard statistical methods like ROC analysis, not AI/ML model evaluation metrics.
No
The device measures total classical complement pathway activity in human serum to detect deficiencies, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one.
Yes
The device is intended to "measure the total classical complement pathway activity in human serum, thereby allowing detection of a deficiency of one or more of the complement components C1 through C9." This directly indicates its use in identifying or detecting a medical condition (deficiency of complement components), which is a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is an EIA (Enzyme Immunoassay) kit, which involves physical reagents and laboratory procedures, not solely software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it is "intended to measure the total classical complement pathway activity in human serum." This is a diagnostic measurement performed on a biological sample (serum) outside of the body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description details a test that "provides a direct measure of the total classical complement activity in serum" using a specific method (EIA) and reagents (monoclonal antibody). This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test.
- Anatomical Site: The test is performed on "human serum," which is a biological sample.
- Intended User / Care Setting: It is intended for "laboratory and professional use," which aligns with the typical setting for performing IVD tests.
The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to perform a diagnostic test on a biological sample in a laboratory setting, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The device, QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA, is similar to other FDA-cleared devices used to measure by immunochemical techniques complement components Clo, C1, C1, C1, C2, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8 and C9 in serum, other body fluids and tissues. Measurements of these proteins aid in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components (21 CFR 866.5240).
The QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA provides a direct measure of the total classical complement activity in serum by quantifying the amount of TCC generated under standard conditions. The test uses a monoclonal antibody to a unique neoantigen to capture the TCC analyte. Since both the QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA and the CH50 test rely on the generation of TCC and correlate, the QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA's results are expressed in CH50 unit equivalents per milliliter.
The OUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA for quantifying the total classical complement activity in human serum involves three basic procedures: (1) complement activation; (2) sample dilution; and, (3) assay for terminal complement complexes (TCC).
To activate the classical complement pathway, undiluted human serum samples and the Controls are added to microassay wells containing the complement Activator. During an incubation the classical pathway of complement is triggered and TCC are generated.
In the second step, the activated sera are diluted in microassay wells or test tubes and dispensed, together with the Standards, directly into a precoated microassay plate. The TCC present in the activated samples bind to the monoclonal antibodies coating the surface of the microassay wells.
In the third step, the TCC microassay plate is washed and loaded with an HRP-conjugate which will bind to the bound TCC. After washing, the TCC microplate is loaded with a chromogenic enzyme substrate. After incubation a reagent is added to stop color development. The absorbancies (A405 values) generated with the Controls, Standards and test specimens are measured spectrophotometrically. The color intensity of the reaction mixture is proportional to the concentration of TCC present and to CH50 units. Using the kit standard curve, assay results are expressed in CH50 unit equivalents per milliliter (CH50 U Eq/mL).

- The test was shown to have good intra- and inter-assay precision. ●
- Lot-to-lot consistency analyses showed the test to be reproducibly manufacturable. ●
- Potentially interfering substances were shown not to interfere with the test's . performance.
- Two hundred and twenty six (226) patient samples were tested at a major clinical . reference laboratory in the United States and evaluated by Receiver Operator Curve (ROC) Analysis.

SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS XI.
Product: OUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA
Manufacturer:
QUIDEL Corporation 10165 McKellar Court San Diego, CA 92121
Device Classification:
The device, QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA, is similar to other FDA-cleared devices used to measure by immunochemical techniques complement components Clo, C1, C1, C1, C2, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8 and C9 in serum, other body fluids and tissues. Measurements of these proteins aid in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components (21 CFR 866.5240).
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published a final regulation in the Federal Register classifying Complement components immunological test system as Class II.
Intended Use:
The QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA measures the total classical complement pathway activity in human serum, thereby allowing detection of a deficiency of one or more of the complement components C1 through C9. The CH50 Eq EIA is for laboratory and professional use.
Physiologic Basis for the Test:
The classical complement pathway is triggered by the binding of C1q component of C1 to immune complexes. This activation results in a cascade of enzymatic and non-enzymatic reactions, culminating in the formation of terminal complement complexes (TCC). Under standard conditions the level of TCC which can be generated in serum is a quantitative expression of the serum's total classical complement activity.
1
The traditional method for measuring the total classical complement activity in serum is the CH50 test. This test is a lytic assay which uses antibodysensitized sheep erythrocytes (EA) as the activator of the classical complement pathway and various dilutions of the test serum to determine the amount required to give 50% lysis. The percent hemolysis is determined spectrophotometrically. The CH50 test is an indirect measure of TCC, since the TCC themselves are directly responsible for the hemolysis which is measured.
The QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA provides a direct measure of the total classical complement activity in serum by quantifying the amount of TCC generated under standard conditions. The test uses a monoclonal antibody to a unique neoantigen to capture the TCC analyte. Since both the QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA and the CH50 test rely on the generation of TCC and correlate, the QUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA's results are expressed in CH50 unit equivalents per milliliter.
Principle of the Test:
The OUIDEL CH50 Eq EIA for quantifying the total classical complement activity in human serum involves three basic procedures: (1) complement activation; (2) sample dilution; and, (3) assay for terminal complement complexes (TCC).
To activate the classical complement pathway, undiluted human serum samples and the Controls are added to microassay wells containing the complement Activator. During an incubation the classical pathway of complement is triggered and TCC are generated.
In the second step, the activated sera are diluted in microassay wells or test tubes and dispensed, together with the Standards, directly into a precoated microassay plate. The TCC present in the activated samples bind to the monoclonal antibodies coating the surface of the microassay wells.
In the third step, the TCC microassay plate is washed and loaded with an HRP-conjugate which will bind to the bound TCC. After washing, the TCC microplate is loaded with a chromogenic enzyme substrate. After incubation a reagent is added to stop color development. The absorbancies (A405 values) generated with the Controls, Standards and test specimens are measured spectrophotometrically. The color intensity of the reaction mixture is proportional to the concentration of TCC present and to CH50 units. Using the kit standard curve, assay results are expressed in CH50 unit equivalents per milliliter (CH50 U Eq/mL).
