Intended Use
The Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) assay uses TIBC sample pretreatment in conjunction with the Iron assay for the quantitation of the total iron binding capacity of human serum. Iron-binding capacity measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of anemia.
Device Description
Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of total iron binding capacity of human serum. The TIBC assay is a clinical chemistry assay which is used in the pretreatment of serum samples for total iron binding capacity analysis with the Iron assay. Ferric chloride saturating solution is mixed with the sample to bind all available apotransferrin binding sites with iron. Alumina adsorbent removes excess iron from the serum mixture. The mixture is then analyzed for total iron and the result is multiplied by the dilution factor to compensate for dilution of the serum by the saturating solution.

No
The device description and performance studies describe a standard clinical chemistry assay based on chemical reactions and spectrophotometric analysis, with no mention of AI or ML techniques.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for the quantitation of total iron binding capacity, which aids in diagnosis and treatment, but does not itself provide therapy.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Iron-binding capacity measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of anemia," and the "Device Description" states it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay."

No

The device description clearly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay" and describes chemical processes involving "Ferric chloride saturating solution" and "Alumina adsorbent," indicating it is a chemical reagent-based assay, not a software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

The document explicitly states in the "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section: "The Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) assay uses TIBC sample pretreatment in conjunction with the Iron assay for the quantitation of the total iron binding capacity of human serum."

Furthermore, the "Device Description" section begins with: "Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of total iron binding capacity of human serum."

These statements clearly indicate that the device is intended for use in vitro (outside of the body) to diagnose or treat conditions (specifically anemia, as mentioned in the intended use) by analyzing human serum.

Summary of Performance Studies

Comparative performance studies were conducted using the ALCYON™ Analyzer. The TIBC assay method comparison yielded acceptable correlation with the Boehringer Mannheim TIBC assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer. The correlation coefficient = 0.9863, slope = 0.878, and Y-intercept = 36.71 ug/dL. Precision studies were conducted using the TIBC assay. Within-run, between-run, and between-day studies were performed using two levels of control material. The total %CV for Level 1/Panel 111 is 4.0% and 4.9% for Level 2/Panel 112. The Iron assay is linear up to 1,400 ug/dL. The limit of quantitation (sensitivity) for the Iron assay is 10 ug/dL. The calculated TIBC values are acceptable from 30 ug/dL to 4,200 ug/dL. These data demonstrate that the performance of the TIBC assay is substantially equivalent to the performance of the Boehringer Mannheim TIBC assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer.
