The device description clearly states it is a solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA) performed in microwells, indicating it is a physical laboratory test kit with hardware components (microwells, reagents, etc.).
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "For in vitro diagnostic use only."
- Nature of the Test: The device is an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) designed to detect antibodies in human serum. This is a classic example of an in vitro test, as it is performed outside of the living organism using biological samples.

Device Description
The SeraQuest EB NA IgG test is a solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA), which is performed in microwells, at room temperature, in three thirty minute incubations. It has been developed to detect IgG antibodies which are directed against Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen, in human serum.
The Calibrators in the SeraQuest EB NA IgG test set have been assigned Index values based on an in-house standard. Test results are reported as Index values.
Principle: Diluted samples are incubated in wells coated with Epstein-Barr nuclear antibodies directed against Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen (if present) are immobilized in the wells. Residual sample is eliminated by washing and draining, and conjugate (enzyme-labeled antibodies to human IQG) is added and incubated. If IoG antibodies to Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen are present. the conjugate will be immobilized in the wells. Residual conjugate is eliminated by washing and draining, and the enzyme substrate is added and incubated. In the presence of the enzyme, the substrate is converted to a vellow end-product which is read photometrically at 405 nm.

157 archival serum specimens were tested. The test specimens included: 80 from patients whose sera were submitted to a clinical laboratory for EBV serological testing, 11 from donors reported to be positive for EBV antibodies, which were obtained through serum brokers, and 66 from normal serum donors. The assays were performed and interpreted according to the manufacturers package inserts.
Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Clinical Testing: To challenge the cutoff values, 157 archival serum specimens were tested at Quest International, Inc., concurrently by the SeraQuest EB NA IgG test and Gull Laboratories' EBNA IgG test. Of the 157 specimens tested, 105 were positive, and 44 were negative in both the SeraQuest and Gull Laboratories' tests. Of the 8 remaining specimens which were negative by the Gull test, were positive by the SeraQuest test, and 1 specimen which was positive by the Gull test, was negative by the SeraQuest test. Five specimens which gave equivocal results in the SeraQuest test were negative in the Gull test. The Gull test has no equivocal interpretation.
Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)
Excluding the equivocal results, the sensitivity of the SeraQuest EB NA IgG test relative to Gull Laboratories NA IgG test was 99.0 %, or 97.2 % to 100 % (95% C.I.); the specificity was 95.6 %, or 89.48% to 100 % (95% C.I.); respectively. The overall agreement was 98.0%, or 95.8 to 100% (95% C.I.).
Relative Sensitivity: 99.0% (95% CI: 97.2 to 100)
Relative specificity: 95.6% (95% CI: 89.8 to 100)
Overall agreement: 98.0% (95% CI: 95.8 to 100)

(a)
Identification. Epstein-Barr virus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to Epstein-Barr virus in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of Epstein-Barr virus infections and provides epidemiological information on diseases caused by these viruses. Epstein-Barr viruses are thought to cause infectious mononucleosis and have been associated with Burkitt's lymphoma (a tumor of the jaw in African children and young adults) and postnasal carcinoma (cancer).(b)

Dear Mr. Cort:
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 regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
