The device description focuses solely on the physical characteristics and manufacturing process of glass pipettes, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing.
No
The device is used to introduce or remove gametes, zygotes, preembryos, and/or embryos from the body, and for ICSI (Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection), which is a reproductive process, not a therapeutic treatment for disease or injury.
No
The device description focuses on tools for practical manipulation (introducing/removing gametes, ICSI), not for assessing medical conditions or diagnosing diseases.
No
The device description explicitly details the manufacturing process of physical glass pipettes, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "introduce or remove gametes, zygotes(s), preembryo)s) and/or embryo(s) into or from the body" and for "I.C.S.I. (Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection)". These are procedures performed on biological material outside the body, but the device's function is to physically manipulate or transfer these materials, not to perform a diagnostic test on them.
- Device Description: The description details the physical construction of pipettes used for manipulation and injection. It does not describe any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples for diagnostic purposes (e.g., detecting analytes, measuring concentrations, identifying pathogens).
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of any reagents, assays, or analytical methods typically associated with IVDs.
IVDs are devices intended to be used in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or congenital abnormality, or to determine the safety and compatibility with potential recipients, or to monitor therapeutic measures. This device does not fit that definition. It is a tool for manipulating biological material in a laboratory setting, likely as part of assisted reproductive technology procedures.

Device Description
The holding and injection pipettes were made from 30µl borosilicate glass capillary tubes, 78mm in length and with inner and outer diameters of 0.69 and 0.97mm respectively. The glass pipettes were obtained by drawing thin-walled glass capillary tubes using a horizontal microelectrode puller. The holding pipette was cut and firepolished on a microforge to obtain an outer diamter of 50um and an inner diameter of 20um. To prepare the injection pipette, the pulled capillary was opened on a microgriner to an outer diameter of 7um and an inner diameter of 5um; the bevel angle was 45°. This grinding step required ~3 minutes. The whetstone of the grinder was humidified by a slow water drip during the procedure. The microforge was then used to make a sharp spike on the injection piepette and to bend the edge of the holding and injection pipettes to an angle of ~35° to facilitate the injection procedure in the Petri dish.

§ 884.6130 Assisted reproduction microtools.
(a)
Identification. Assisted reproduction microtools are pipettes or other devices used in the laboratory to denude, micromanipulate, hold, or transfer human gametes or embryos for assisted hatching, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), or other assisted reproduction methods.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, and clinical testing). The device, when the assisted reproduction microtools (pipettes) are manufactured from glass, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.
