No
The device description and performance studies focus on the biological properties and function of Bovine Serum Albumin as a protein supplement, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No.
The BSA described is a protein supplement used during assisted reproductive procedures, primarily for in vitro fertilization, embryo culture, and cryopreservation. It supports embryonic growth but does not directly treat a disease or condition in a patient.

No
The device is a protein supplement used in assisted reproductive procedures (IVF, embryo culture, cryopreservation) and does not perform diagnostic functions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a solution or powder, which are physical substances, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the use of Bovine Serum Albumin as a protein supplement in assisted reproductive procedures like in vitro fertilization, embryo culture, and cryopreservation. These are procedures performed outside the human body, but the BSA itself is a component used in the culture media or solutions, not a test performed on a specimen from the human body to provide diagnostic information.
  • Device Description: The description details the composition of the BSA solution or powder. This aligns with a reagent or component used in a laboratory procedure, not a diagnostic test kit or instrument.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: The information does not mention any intent to diagnose a disease, condition, or state of health. The purpose is to support the viability and development of gametes and embryos.
  • Performance Studies: The performance study described is a mouse embryo assay to assess functionality and lack of toxicity, which is relevant to the quality of the reagent for its intended use in culture, not a clinical performance study for a diagnostic test.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device mentioned is a "Notice of Final Rule," which likely relates to the regulation of these types of products, not a specific IVD predicate device.

IVDs are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This BSA product does not fit that description. It is a reagent used in a laboratory procedure.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

BSA is assayed by mouse embryo assay prior to release to market. This assay assures that the product is both functional for its intended use, the support of embryonic growth, and that no toxic components are present in the formulation. Bovine Serum Albumin has been used in a variety of clinical settings, for their intended use, for a number of years. In that time, the product has become one of the standard protein supplements used for the in vitro fertilization and growth of human gametes and embryos.

§ 884.6180 Reproductive media and supplements.

(a)
Identification. Reproductive media and supplement are products that are used for assisted reproduction procedures. Media include liquid and powder versions of various substances that come in direct physical contact with human gametes or embryos (including water, acid solutions used to treat gametes or embryos, rinsing solutions, sperm separation media, supplements, or oil used to cover the media) for the purposes of preparation, maintenance, transfer or storage. Supplements are specific reagents added to media to enhance specific properties of the media (e.g., proteins, sera, antibiotics, etc.).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing). The device, when it is phosphate-buffered saline used for washing, and short-term handling and manipulation of gametes and embryos; culture oil used as an overlay for culture media containing gametes and embryos; and water for assisted reproduction applications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.

Intended Use:

Bovine Serum Albumin is intended for use in assisted reproductive procedures that require protein supplementation. These procedures include in vitro fertilization, embryo culture and growth.

Technological Characteristics:

Depending upon the procedure used, an appropriate amount of pre-warmed, equilibrated BSA is withdrawn, and added to the culture dish and support medium. After the desired stage of embryo development is achieved, the embryo is removed from the culture dish, placed into a HEPES-buffered transfer medium, and implanted into the patient. BSA is not intended to contact the patient.

Performance Data:

BSA is assayed by mouse embryo assay prior to release to market. This assay assures that the product is both functional for its intended use, the support of embryonic growth, and that no toxic components are present in the formulation. Bovine Serum Albumin has been used in a variety of clinical settings, for their intended use, for a number of years. In that time, the product has become one of the standard protein supplements used for the in vitro fertilization and growth of human gametes and embryos.

Additional Information:

Mouse embryo testing will be performed as a condition of release for this product, as well as endotoxin and sterility testing. Results of all release assays performed will be reported on a lot-specific certificate of analysis, and will be indicated on the labeling.

Conclusion:

The conclusion from performance testing, as well as a review of the historical information contained in professional literature shows that Bovine Serum Albumin is suitable for its intended use, and meet the criteria outlined in the Notice of Final Rule, 63 FR 48428, Docket number 97N-0335.

Dear Ms. Johnson:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP requlation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
