Intended Use of the Device:
IMMULITE 2000 Vitamin B12 is for in vitro diagnostic use with the IMMULITE 2000 Analyzer - for the quantitative measurement of vitamin B12 in serum or heparinized plasma, as an aid in clinical diagnosis and treatment of anemia.
Summary and Explanation of the Test:
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) and folate are nutrients essential to hematopoiesis. Megaloblastic anemia is almost always due to lack of one of these two vitamin B12 deficiency can also result in severe neurological impairment.
Circulating levels of vitamin B12 are usually a good index to tissue stores. That is, vitamin B12 levels as measured in serum or plasma by an optimized assay system are typically low in vitamin B12 deficiency, and normal or elevated otherwise. Exceptions to this rule can occur in those relatively uncommon situations where levels of vitamin B12 transport proteins are abnormal. Thus, low circulating vitamin B12 levels can occur in the absence of vitamin B12 deficiency where the level of transcobalamin I (a physiologically inactive transport protein) is low.
Conversely, vitamin B12 deficiency can occur in the presence of normal or even elevated plasma vitamin B12 levels where transcobalamin II levels are low or where levels of inactive vitamin B 12 transport proteins are high, as in chronic myelogenous leukemia. (Circulating folate levels are usually normal or elevated in vitamin B12 deficiency, but red cell folate levels are frequently low in this condition.)
Vitamin B12 deficiency occurs only rarely as a result of dietary lack of this vitamin. More commonly, it results from impaired absorption, as in partial or total gastrectomy, or in pernicious anemia, a condition characterized by absence or near absence of intrinsic factor. Since roughly two thirds of all patients with pernicious anemia have blocking antibodies to intrinsic factor (IFbAb), while IFbAb are only very rarely encountered in other situations, IFbAb determinations represent a useful follow-up test for the differential diagnosis of vitamin B12 deficiency. (Circulating intrinsic factor antibodies are present in more than half of all pernicious anemia patients. Increased transport protein levels can occur, for example in chronic myelogenous leukemia.)
Common causes of high vitamin B12 levels include liver disease, myeloproliferative disease (with chronic myelogenous leukemia as a special case) and the use of multivitamin supplements.

Performance Equivalence - Technology Comparison:
IMMULITE® and IMMULITE® 2000 Vitamin B12 are chemiluminescent immunoassays. The technology in DPC's IMMULITE® 2000 Vitamin B12 is a unique combination of technologies employed in previously cleared and commercially marketed DPC products.
The IMMULITE 2000 Vitamin B12 assay begins with a one-cycle sample treatment of patient serum or plasma with dithiothreitol (DTT) and a sodium hydroxide/potassium cyanide solution (NaOH/KCN) in a reaction tube containing no bead. After a 30-minute incubation, the treated sample is transferred to a second reaction tube containing a vitamin B12-coated polystyrene bead, hog intrinsic factor (HIF) and an alkaline phosphatase-labeled antibody specific for HIF. During a 30-minute incubation, the vitamin B12 released from endogenous binding proteins during sample treatment competes with immobilized vitamin B12 for binding with HIF. Alkaline phosphatase-labeled anti-HIF antibody binds to HIF and is immobilized only if HIF is bound to the B12-coated bead. Unbound enzyme conjugate is removed by centrifugal wash. Substrate is added.
The chemiluminescent substrate, a phosphate ester of adamantyl dioxetane, undergoes hydrolysis in the presence of alkaline phosphatase to yield an unstable intermediate. The continuous production of this intermediate results in the sustained emission of light, thus improving precision by providing a window for multiple readings. The bound comblex - and thus also the photon output, as measured by the luminometer - is inversely proportional to the concentration of vitamin B12 in the sample.
IMMULITE® Vitamin B12 is a chemiluminescent version of the classic method for vitamin B12 radioassay, involving a preliminary heat denaturation step. Vitamin B12 in the patient sample is released from carrier proteins by incubation at 100 ℃ in the presence of dithiothreitol and potassium cyanide to inactivate vitamin B12-binding proteins, even at extreme levels, as well as antibodies to intrinsic factor.
After the heat denaturation step, the treated patient sample and purified hog intrinsic factor are simultaneously introduced into an IMMULITE® Test Unit containing a polystyrene bead coated with a B12 analog, and incubated for approximately 30 minutes at 37 ℃ with intermittent agitation. During this incubation, vitamin B12 in the treated sample competes with the B12 analog on the solid phase for a limited number of vitamin B12 binding sites on the purified intrinsic factor. (Endogenous vitamin B12 analogs do not interfere, because the binder is free of R-protein.) Alkaline phosphatase-labeled anti-hog intrinsic factor is introduced, and the Test Unit is incubated for another 30-minute cycle. The unbound enzyme conjugate is removed by a centrifugal wash.

Performance Equivalence - Technology Comparison (continued):
Substrate is then added, and the Test Unit is incubated for a further 10 minutes. The chemiluminescent substrate, a phosphate ester of adamantyl dioxetane, undergoes hydrolysis in the presence of alkaline phosphatase to yield an unstable intermediate. The continuous production of this intermediate results in the sustained emission of light, thus improving precision by providing a window for multiple readings. The bound complex - and thus also the photon output, as measured by the luminometer - is inversely proportional to the concentration of vitamin B12 in the sample.
Performance Equivalence - Method Comparison:
The IMMULITE® 2000 Vitamin B12 procedure was compared to DPC's IMMULITE® Vitamin B12 on 166 patient serum samples. Linear regression yielded the following results.
(IMMULITE® 2000) = 0.95 (IMMULITE®) - 34 pg/mL
r = 0.937
400 pg/mL (IMMULITE® 2000) Means: 457 pg/mL (IMMULITE®)
Conclusion:
The data presented in this summary of safety and effectiveness is the data the Food and Drug Administration used in granting DPC substantial equivalence for IMMULITE® 2000 Vitamin B12.
