Intended Use
The Access® AFP QC (serum based) are tri-level controls intended for use in monitoring system performance of immunoenzymatic procedures for the quantitative measurement of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) using the Access Immunoassay System.
Device Description
The Access AFP QC are tri-level controls consisting of human AFP in human serum with preservatives. They are targeted to cover the assay range of approximately 7.0 ng/ml to 1725 ng/ml. with the controls targeted at 7, 80 and 1725 na/ml.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a quality control material for an immunoassay system, not a device that processes data or images using AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly "Not Found".

No
Explanation: The device is described as a control for monitoring system performance of immunoenzymatic procedures for the quantitative measurement of alpha-fetoprotein. It is used for diagnostic purposes (monitoring performance of an assay), not for treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is described as "tri-level controls intended for use in monitoring system performance of immunoenzymatic procedures." This indicates it's a quality control product used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of diagnostic tests, rather than performing the diagnosis itself. It helps to ensure the diagnostic device is working correctly, it's not a diagnostic device itself.

No

The device description clearly states the controls consist of human AFP in human serum with preservatives, indicating a physical, biological component, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for "monitoring system performance of immunoenzymatic procedures for the quantitative measurement of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) using the Access Immunoassay System." This indicates it's used in vitro (outside the body) to assess the performance of a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description mentions it consists of "human AFP in human serum," which is a biological sample used in laboratory testing.
  • Function: Controls are a fundamental component of IVD testing, used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the assay being performed on patient samples.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Access® AFP QC is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

3. Device Description

The Access AFP QC are tri-level controls consisting of human AFP in human serum with preservatives. They are targeted to cover the assay range of approximately 7.0 ng/ml to 1725 ng/ml. with the controls targeted at 7, 80 and 1725 na/ml.

Indications for Use 4.

The Access AFP QC are controls intended for use in monitoring system performance of immunoenzymatic procedures for the quantitative measurement of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) using the Access Immunoassay System.

5. Comparison of Technological Characteristics

The Access AFP QC and the Lyphochek Immunoassay Controls are both tri-level, human serum-based immunoassay controls intended to monitor the system performance of immunoassays for the measurement of AFP in human serum.

The Access AFP QC, intended for use with the Access AFP Reagents on the Access Immunoassay System are provided ready to use with an approximate range of 7.0 to 1725 ng/ml. The Lyphochek Immunoassay Controls, not designed for a specific immunoassay system, have approximate range of 30 to 280 ng/ml, depending on the assay used and require reconstitution.

6. Summary of Studies

Within-run, between-run and total imprecision of all three levels of the Access AFP QC were less than 5% CV. Access AFP QC are stable for up to 13 months when stored at 2-8° C

7. · Conclusion

The Access AFP QC tri-level control materials are substantially equivalent to the Lyphochek Immunoassay Controls for the determination of system performance of AFP immunoassays based on similar features and reproducible results.
