The description details a chemical assay method for measuring iron levels and does not mention any AI or ML components.
No.
The "Intended Use" states that it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay" used for the "quantitative determination of iron in serum" for "diagnosis" of conditions like iron deficiency anemia, not for treating them.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the test is "an in vitro diagnostic assay" and is "of use in the diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia, hemochromatosis, chronic inflammatory disorders and malignancies."
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay that utilizes chemical reactions and reagents to measure iron levels in serum, indicating it is a hardware-based laboratory test, not software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The description explicitly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of iron in serum." It also mentions its use in the diagnosis of various conditions, which is a key characteristic of IVDs.
- Device Description: The description details a laboratory method for analyzing a biological sample (serum) outside of the body ("in vitro").
- Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" which is a "Wako UIBC manual test" further confirms its classification as a medical device, and specifically an IVD given the context.
The information provided clearly aligns with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Wako L-type UIBC test is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of iron in serum. Measurement of serum iron concentration, UIBC and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) are is largely of use in the diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia, hemochromatosis, chronic inflammatory disorders and malignancies.

Device Description
The Wako L-type UIBC is a method utilizing bathophenanthroline as a chromogen. When a sample is mixed with the Buffer containing a known excess amount of iron, unsaturated transferrin in serum quantitatively associates with iron in the Buffer and is converted to a saturated state. The portion of iron which remains unassociated is assayed through color development with ascorbic acid and bathophenanthroline disulfonic acid disdoium salt. The unsaturated transferrin concentration in the sample can be determiend by calculating the decrement of iron in the Buffer.

510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness
The Wako L-type UIBC test is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of iron in serum.
Approximately two thirds of iron in the body is in hemoglobin of red blood corpuscles (RBCs) and the rest is in liver, spleen, bone marrow and other tissues as stored in iron. Numerous cellular enzymes and coenzymes require iron, such as peroxidases and cytochromes. Transport of iron from one organ to another is accomplished by serum iron, bound to transferrin. Serum transferrin has considerable reserve iron binding capacity, which is called the serum unsataturated iron binding capacity (UIBC), because normally about one third of the iron binding sites of transferrin are occupied by iron. Measurement of serum iron concentration, UIBC and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) are is largely of use in the diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia, hemochromatosis, chronic inflammatory disorders and malignancies. There are several methods used for the measurement of UIBC and TIBC.12 The Wako Letype UIBC is a method utilizing bathophenanthroline as a chromogen.
When a sample is mixed with the Buffer containing a known excess amount of iron, unsaturated transferrin in serum quantitatively associates with iron in the Buffer and is converted to a saturated state. The portion of iron which remains unassociated is assayed through color development with ascorbic acid and bathophenanthroline disulfonic acid disdoium salt. The unsaturated transferrin concentration in the sample can be determiend by calculating the decrement of iron in the Buffer.
The safety and effectiveness of the Wako L-type UIBC assay is demonstrated by its substantial equivalency to the Wako UIBC manual test.
Precision studies indicate acceptable values can be obtained on a day to day basis. The minimum detectable level of this method is estimated to be 1.8 mg/dL. The Wako L-type UIBC assay has determined to be linear to 600 ug/dL.
