The description details a standard enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for detecting antibodies. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The "Not Found" entries for "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Description of the training set..." further support this conclusion.
No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test used to detect antibodies for diagnostic purposes, not to treat a disease.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "For use as an aid in the diagnosis of systemic rheumatic disease, particularly Sjogren's Syndrome."
No
The device description clearly states it is a solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA) performed in microwells, indicating a physical kit with reagents and components, not solely software. It also mentions use with a semi-automated fluid handler (HyPrep System Plus), which is a hardware component.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "For In Vitro Diagnostic Use Only."
- Nature of the Test: The device performs a test on human serum (a biological sample taken from the body) to detect antibodies. This is a classic characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it is performed outside of the living organism.
- Purpose of the Test: The test is intended as an "aid in the diagnosis of systemic rheumatic disease, particularly Sjogren's Syndrome." This diagnostic purpose is a key function of IVD devices.
- Device Description: The description details a "solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA)," which is a common laboratory technique used in IVD testing.
All of these factors strongly indicate that this device is an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description
The SeraQuest Anti-SSA test is a solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA), which is performed in microwells, at room temperature, in three thirty minute incubations. It has been developed to detect IgG antibodies which are directed against SSA nuclear antigen (Anti-SSA) , in human serum.
The Calibrators in the SeraQuest Anti-SSA test set have been assigned Index values based on an in-house standard. Test results are reported as Index values.

§ 866.5100 Antinuclear antibody immunological test system.
(a)
Identification. An antinuclear antibody immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoimmune antibodies in serum, other body fluids, and tissues that react with cellular nuclear constituents (molecules present in the nucleus of a cell, such as ribonucleic acid, deoxyribonucleic acid, or nuclear proteins). The measurements aid in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (a multisystem autoimmune disease in which antibodies attack the victim's own tissues), hepatitis (a liver disease), rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome (arthritis with inflammation of the eye, eyelid, and salivary glands), and systemic sclerosis (chronic hardening and shrinking of many body tissues).(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Description:
The SeraQuest Anti-SSA test is a solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA), which is performed in microwells, at room temperature, in three thirty minute incubations. It has been developed to detect IgG antibodies which are directed against SSA nuclear antigen (Anti-SSA) , in human serum.
The Calibrators in the SeraQuest Anti-SSA test set have been assigned Index values based on an in-house standard. Test results are reported as Index values.
Principle:
Diluted samples are incubated in wells coated with SSA antigen. Antibodies against SSA (if present) are immobilized in the wells. Residual sample is eliminated by washing and conjugate (enzyme-labeled antibodies to human IgG) is added and incubated. If IgG antibodies to SSA are present, the conjugate will be immobilized in the wells. Residual conjugate is eliminated by washing and draining, and the enzyme substrate is added and incubated. In the presence of the enzyme, the substrate is converted to a yellow end-product which is read photometrically at 405 nm.
Intended Use:
For the qualitative and semi-quantitative detection of human antibodies to SSA nuclear antigen in human serum by enzyme immunoassay. For use as an aid in the diagnosis of systemic rheumatic

disease, particularly Sjogren's Syndrome. For manual use, or for use with the HyPrep System Plus. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use Only.
Predicate Device:
The SeraQuest Anti-SSA test is substantially equivalent in intended use and performance, to the Shield Diastat Anti-SSA test, Shield Diagnostics, Dundee, DD2 1SW.
