Intended Use
The CMV Brite™ Turbo Kit is intended for the qualitative detection of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) lower matrix protein pp65 by indirect immunofluorescence using microscopy in isolated peripheral blood leukocytes obtained from ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) or heparin anticoagulated human peripheral blood. The detection of CMV pp65 in human perpheral blood cells aids in the diagnosis of acute or reactivated CMV infection. This product is not FDA cleared (approved) for use in testing (i.e., screening) of blood or plasma donors.
Device Description
The CMV antigenemia assay has been developed using a cocktail of two monoclonal antibodies (C10/C11) directed against CMV lower matrix protein pp65(6). The assay uses the C10/C11 cocktail in an indirect immunofluorescence staining of cytospin preparations of peripheral blood leukocytes. The CMV Brite™ Turbo antigenemia assay is completed within two hours of blood collection which saves time and means a rapid answer for the clinician. The CMV Brite™ Turbo method consists of: - Direct lysis of peripheral blood erythrocytes a. - Preparation of cytospin slides b. - Fixation and permeabilization C. - Indirect immunofluorescence staining using monoclonal antibodies directed d. against CMV pp65 protein - Reading and evaluation of results e. The first step in the CMV Brite™ Turbo method involves direct lysis of the peripheral blood erythrocytes(22). Following lysis the leukocytes are cytocentrifuged onto a slide, fixed and permeabilized to allow subsequent detection of CMV pp65 antigen. The presence of the CMV pp65 antigen is detected by the C10/C11 antibody cocktail and visualized by means of a specific secondary FITC-labeled antibody. CMV antigenpositive leukocytes exhibit homogeneous yellow-green polylobate nuclear staining when observed using a fluorescence microscope. The number of CMV antigen-positive cells are counted per duplicate stain. The whole procedure can be performed in approximately 2 hours. The total analysis time has been shortened by performing direct erythrocyte lysis on whole blood and avoiding dextran sedimentation. Further time has been saved by shortening individual steps in the protocol so that the whole CMV antigenemia procedure has been reduced in time by more than 50%.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on a traditional immunofluorescence assay and manual microscopy for reading and evaluation. There is no mention of automated image analysis, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest AI/ML is used.

No
The device is described as an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) kit for detecting Cytomegalovirus (CMV) pp65, which aids in diagnosing CMV infection. It is not designed to treat, prevent, or mitigate any disease or condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device "aids in the diagnosis of acute or reactivated CMV infection."

No

The device is a kit containing reagents and antibodies for an immunofluorescence assay, which are physical components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the kit is intended for the "qualitative detection of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) lower matrix protein pp65 by indirect immunofluorescence using microscopy in isolated peripheral blood leukocytes... The detection of CMV pp65 in human peripheral blood cells aids in the diagnosis of acute or reactivated CMV infection." This clearly describes a test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a human specimen (peripheral blood leukocytes) to provide information for the diagnosis of a disease (CMV infection).
  • Device Description: The description details a laboratory procedure involving the processing of blood samples, staining with antibodies, and examination under a microscope to detect a specific analyte (CMV pp65 protein). This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Input Imaging Modality: The use of "Immunofluorescence Microscopy" is a common technique used in IVD assays.
  • Anatomical Site: The test is performed on "Peripheral blood leukocytes," which are a human specimen.
  • Performance Metrics: The inclusion of metrics like Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, and NPV are standard for evaluating the performance of diagnostic tests.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (K951550) indicates that this device has gone through a regulatory process, likely a 510(k) submission, which is required for many IVD devices in the US.

All of these factors strongly indicate that the CMV Brite™ Turbo Kit is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 866.3175 Cytomegalovirus serological reagents.

(a)
Identification. Cytomegalovirus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to cytomegalovirus in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of diseases caused by cytomegaloviruses (principally cytomegalic inclusion disease) and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Cytomegalic inclusion disease is a generalized infection of infants and is caused by intrauterine or early postnatal infection with the virus. The disease may cause severe congenital abnormalities, such as microcephaly (abnormal smallness of the head), motor disability, and mental retardation. Cytomegalovirus infection has also been associated with acquired hemolytic anemia, acute and chronic hepatitis, and an infectious mononucleosis-like syndrome.(b)
