The Diamedix Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit is an Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) for the qualitative and quantitative determination of IgG antibodies in human serum to aid in the assessment of the patient's immunological response to infection with rubellaand in the determination of the immune status of individuals, including females of child-bearing age. The evaluation of acute and convalescent sera can aid in the diagnosis of recent or current infection with rubella. These reagents can be used either manually or in conjunction with the MAGO® Plus Automated EIA Processor.
The Is-Rubella IgG Test System is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the qualitative and quantitative detection of IgG to rubella in human serum. Partially purified rubella antigen is attached to a solid phase microtiter well. Diluted test sera are added to each well. If antibodies which recognize the rubella antigen are present in the patient sample they will bind to the antigen on the well. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound antibody. An enzyme labeled anti-human immunoglobulin (conjugate) is added to each test well. If antibody is present the enzyme-linked antibody will bind to it. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound conjugate. A substrate solution is then added to each well. If enzyme is present from the prior step, the reaction is stopped and the color intensity is measured photometrically producing an indirect measure of the specific antibody present in the patient sample.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study details for the Diamedix Is-Rubella IgG Test System, based on the provided text:
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not explicitly state pre-defined "acceptance criteria" in terms of specific quantitative thresholds that the device must meet to be considered effective. Instead, it presents performance characteristics in comparison to existing marketed tests (predicate devices) and a CDC reference panel. The overall goal appears to be demonstrating substantial equivalence to these predicate devices.
However, we can infer performance targets from the reported results, particularly overall agreement, sensitivity, and specificity. The data is presented as a comparison, implying that similar performance to established methods is the 'acceptance criteria.'
| Metric | Acceptance Criteria (Implied from predicate performance/benchmark) | Reported Device Performance (Range Across Sites/Methods) | Study Section Where Found |
|---|---|---|---|
| Relative Sensitivity (Qualitative) | High agreement with predicate (e.g., >95%) | 93.3-100.0% (Site #1: 97.1%; Site #2: 100.0%; Site #3 Manual: 98.1%; Site #3 MAGO Plus: 99.5%) | A. Comparison Testing |

- Site #1: 198 prospective (fresh) sera.
- Site #2: 178 prospective (fresh) sera.
- Site #3 (Diamedix Corp.): 270 retrospective (frozen) sera (263 by MAGO Plus).
- All sites: 100 retrospective selected negative and low positive sera (panel provided by Diamedix).
- Total unique samples could be estimated as 198 + 178 + (270 - possible overlap with the 100 panel, not explicitly stated if it's separate) + 100. At least 646 samples if the 100 panel is unique from the 270 from Site #3.
- Data Provenance:
- Site #1: S. Florida area (prospective).
- Site #2: West region (prospective).
- Site #3 (Diamedix Corp.): S. Florida blood donors (retrospective/frozen).
- The 100 retrospective negative/low positive sera were "provided by Diamedix," suggesting a potentially internal or curated source.
- Number of Experts & Qualifications (Ground Truth): Not applicable for this comparison study, as the ground truth was established by "currently used testing methods" (predicate EIAs) and a "referee EIA method" for discordant samples. No human expert interpretation was used as ground truth.
- Adjudication Method: For discordant samples, a "referee EIA method" was used for further resolution. The specific details of how discrepancies between the new device and predicate were handled by the referee method (e.g., if the referee method became the final truth) are implied rather than explicitly stated as a formal adjudication process.
- Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study: No, this was not an MRMC study. It was a comparison of a new assay against predicate assays.
- Standalone Performance: Yes, the performance characteristics (sensitivity, specificity, agreement) of the Is-Rubella IgG Test System are reported as a standalone algorithm/device performance against the predicate devices.
- Type of Ground Truth: The "ground truth" for the comparison studies was derived from existing, marketed EIA methods (predicate devices) and a "referee EIA method" for resolving discordant results. It is relative to these comparator assays, not pathology, outcomes data, or expert consensus in the diagnostic sense.
- Sample Size (Training Set): Not explicitly stated. This document focuses on verification/validation, not development.
- Ground Truth for Training Set: Not explicitly stated. Assumed to be internal development or established reference methods during product development.
- Sample Size (Test Set):
-
CDC Serum Panel Data:

- Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable.
-
Correlation, Linearity, and Precision Studies: These studies evaluate technical performance aspects of the assay.
- Sample Size (Test Set):
- Correlation (Manual vs. MAGO Plus): 193 samples.
- Linearity: "Several strongly positive serum samples" (specific number not given), diluted and assayed in duplicate. Figures show data for "one patient sample."
- Correlation to WHO Standard: "Several dilutions of the WHO Standard" assayed in triplicate.
- Quantitative Data (Serum pairs): "Multiple two-fold dilutions of several strongly positive sera."
- Cross-Reactivity Data: 49 sera negative for rubella IgG antibodies but positive for one or more other viruses.
- Precision: Seven serum samples spanning the reportable range, plus reference standards and controls. Tested in triplicate in 2-3 separate runs on 3 different days across 3 sites.
- Data Provenance: Not specified for individual samples, but the precision studies involved three sites: Site #1, Site #2, and Site #3 (Diamedix Corp.).
- Number of Experts & Qualifications (Ground Truth): Not applicable for these technical performance studies.
- Adjudication Method: Not applicable.
- Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study: No.
- Standalone Performance: Yes, these are all standalone evaluations of the device's technical performance characteristics.
- Type of Ground Truth: For linearity, it's based on expected dilution patterns. For WHO correlation, it's against the WHO 1st International Standard for Anti-Rubella Immunoglobulin. For cross-reactivity, it's against known positive samples for other viruses (verified by other marketed tests). For precision, it's about the reproducibility of the device's own measurements.
- Sample Size (Training Set): Not explicitly stated.
- Ground Truth for Training Set: Not explicitly stated. Assumed to be internal methods during product development.

Performance Characteristics
A. Comparison Testing
A total of three hundred and seventy-six prospective (fresh) sera were tested for the presence of rubella IgG antibodies using the Diamedix Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit and two other marketed tests at two independent sites (site #1, Miami, FL and site #2, Salt Lake City, Utah). Site #3 (Diamedix Corp. ( Miami, FL) tested 270 retrospective (frozen) sera both manually and using the MAGO Plus Automated EIA Processor. In addition, all sites tested a panel of 100 retrospective selected negative and low positive sera provided by Diamedix. Site #1 also tested the CDC Rubella Reference Panel (See Section C. )
Site #1 tested 198 samples submitted for immune status screening. Samples were obtained from the S. Florida area. Table 1 compares the results obtained for the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit and their currently used testing method.
Site #2 tested 178 samples submitted for ToRCH screening. Samples were obtained from the West region. Table 2 compares the results obtained for the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit and their currently used testing method.

NOTE : Please be advised that relative refers to the comparison of the assay's results to that of a similar assay. There was not an attempt to correlate the assay's results with disease presence or absence. No judgment can be comparison assay's accuracy to predict disease.
B. Correlation of Manual and MAGO Plus Results
The Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit has been developed for automated as well as manual use. To demonstrate the equivalence of the manual and MAGO Plus Procedures, the results of 193 samples tested assayed manually and by MAGO Plus were compared. Highly reactive samples that exceeded the reportable range and were excluded from this comparison. A scattergram and regression line of the results obtained with 95% confidence intervals is shown in Figure 1.
Image /page/3/Figure/7 description: This image is a scatter plot comparing MAGO PLUS IU/ml to MANUAL IU/ml. The data points are clustered around a regression line, indicating a positive correlation between the two variables. The equation of the regression line is Y = 1.6349 + 0.9947 X, and the correlation coefficient (r) is 0.9550, suggesting a strong positive linear relationship.
Image /page/3/Figure/8 description: The image shows the title of a figure. The title is "FIGURE 1 : Manual vs MAGO Plus Correlation". The title is written in a bold, sans-serif font.
C. CDC Serum Panel Data
)
The following information was obtained wth the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) serum panel for rubella serology assays which was tested by the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit both manually and using the MAGO Plus Automated Processor. For independent verification, this panel was also tested manually by outside site #1. The results are presented as a means to convey further information on the performance of this assay with a masked, characterized serum panel. Results were submitted to the CDC for their interpretation and evaluation. This does not imply an endorsement of the assay by the CDC.
The panel consists of 82% positive and 18% negative samples. The outside testing site correctly identified all samples (100% agreement). Of the results obtained by Diamedix, there was 100% (18 of 18) agreement with the negative results using both the manual and automated methods and 97.6% (80 of 82) agreement with the positive specimens using both the manual and automated methods.

C. Linearity
ﻤﺴﻠﺴﺔ
ﻟﻤﺴﺘﻘﻠﺔ
Several strongly positive serum samples were serially diluted and separate dilutions were assayed, in duplicate, in the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit both manually and using the MAGO Plus Automated EIA Processor. Representative linear regression graphs and scattergrams of the mean results with 95% confidence intervals are presented in Figures 3 and 4 for one patient sample. The results demonstrate a high degree of linearity throughout the assay when samples are tested either manually or by MAGO Plus.
Image /page/4/Figure/2 description: The image contains two line graphs comparing manual linearity and MAGO Plus linearity. The graph on the left, labeled "FIGURE 2: Manual Linearity," shows a slope of 101.51, a Y-intercept of 0.54, and an R-squared value of 0.9933. The graph on the right, labeled "FIGURE 3: MAGO Plus Linearity," shows a slope of 168.47, a Y-intercept of -1.54, and an R-squared value of 0.9969. Both graphs plot dilution on the x-axis and IU/ml on the y-axis, with data points and trendlines indicating a positive correlation between dilution and IU/ml.
D. Correlation to WHO Standard
The Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit has been calibrated against the WHO 1st International Standard for Anti-Rubella Immunoglobulin (code RUBI-1-94). To demonstrate the accuracy of the quantitative procedure, several dilutions of the WHO Standard were prepared and assayed manually in triplicate versus the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit standard curve. The linear regression graph and scattergram of the mean results with 95% Confidence Intervals is shown in Figure 4.
Image /page/4/Figure/5 description: The image is titled "FIGURE 4: WHO IU/ml vs Is-Rubella IgG IU/ml". The image contains the equation Y = 24080 + 07327 X. The number 80 is also present in the image.
Image /page/4/Figure/6 description: This image is a scatter plot that shows the relationship between Is-Rubella IgG IU/ml and WHO IU/ml. The x-axis represents WHO IU/ml, and the y-axis represents Is-Rubella IgG IU/ml. The plot includes a regression line with the equation Y = 2.4080 + 0.7327 X, and the coefficient of determination (R^2) is 0.9846, indicating a strong positive correlation between the two variables.
E. Quantitative Data
Serum pairs were obtained by preparing multiple two-fold dilutions of several strongly positive sera. Ratios for dilutions representing a four-fold difference in antibody level were evaluated as a serum pair both manually and using the MAGO Plus. Overall, it was estimated that a 2.8 told (mean 4.8-fold ) increase in Is-Rubella IgG IU/ml values corresponded to a four-fold titer increase in rubella IgG antibody levels.
{5}------------------------------------------------
F. Cross-Reactivity Data
Sera containing IgG antibodies to viruses potentially cross-reactive to rubella have been tested in the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit. Forty-nine sera negative for IgG antibodies to rubella IgG Test Kit as well as in another marketed test but positive for one or more viruses were evaluated. The data in the following table suggest that no cross-reactivity should be expected with the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit from these analytes.

G. Precision
)
Seven serum samples, spanning the reportable range, as well as the 10 IU/ml Standard and kit Low Positive and Negative Controls were tested quantitatively and values calculated from IU/ml results. Sites #1 and #2 tested samples in triplicate in three separate runs on three different days. Site #3 (Diamedix Corp.) tested samples in triplicate in two separate runs on three different days both manually and using the MAGO Plus Automated EIA Processor. Note that for MAGO Plus (Table 10) the 50 IU/ml Standard was replaced with an additional weakly positive sample. Tables 7-13 show the intra- and interassay precision for each site, the inter-site precision for manual and MAGO Plus.

Expected Values
)
The incidence of rubella IgG antibodies varies among populations depending on vaccination practices. In a recent national survey of military recruits the seronegativity rate was 17.4% for males and 12.8% for females.
In the present studies sera from 100 healthy South Florida donors (52 female and 48 male) were evaluated in the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit. Of the 100 samples, 89 (89%) were found to be positive, 9 (9%) were negative and 2 (2%) were equivocal. Age distribution, geographic location and prevalence is provided in Table 14. Histograms demonstrating the distribution of IU/ml values are shown in Figures 5 and 6.
Thirty-seven of the female donors were of child-bearing age (18-45 years). Of the sera from these donors, 29 (79%) were positive, 6 (16%) were negative and 2 (5%) were equivocal. A total of 45 sera from pregnant females (15 from each trimester) were also tested in the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit. Forty one (92%) were negative, 2 (4%) were negative and 2 (4%) were equivocal for anti-rubella IgG. In addition, a total of 294 samples from females of childbearing age were identified in the outside and in-house clinical studies (these included the 45 sera from pregnant females already referenced). Of these samples, 223 (76%) were positive, 56 (19%) were negative and 15 (5%) were equivocal for antirubella IgG when evaluated in the Is-Rubella IgG Test Kit.
