## Indications for Use

The Nano-Check ™AMI 3 IN 1 Test is a rapid immunoassay for the qualitative determination of Cardiac Troponin I (cTnl), Creatine Kinase MB (CK-MB), and Myoglobin in human serum and plasma specimens at cutoff concentrations of 0.5 ng/ml, 5.0 ng/ml, and 80 ng/ml, respectively, as an aid in the diagnosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI). The Nano-Check™ AMI 3 IN 1 Test is a qualitative assay, which can not monitor the rise and fall of cTnl, CK-MB, and Myoglobin in single testing. Single testing is not recommended for AMI monitoring. Test results should be interpreted by the physician in conjunction with other laboratory test results and patient clinical findings.

## Device Story

Nano-Check AMI 3 IN 1 is a single-use, lateral flow immunochromatography cassette for qualitative detection of cardiac markers (cTnl, CK-MB, Myoglobin) in serum or heparin plasma. Device contains membrane strip with immobilized capture antibodies (CK-MB, Myoglobin, streptavidin for cTnl, goat anti-mouse for control) and dye pad with gold-colloidal labeled antibodies. Sample application triggers migration of immune complexes; binding to test lines produces visible red bands if concentrations exceed cutoffs (0.5 ng/ml cTnl, 5 ng/ml CK-MB, 80 ng/ml Myoglobin). Used in clinical settings by professionals; results interpreted alongside clinical findings to aid AMI diagnosis. Provides rapid (15 min) visual qualitative assessment; does not monitor marker kinetics.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing only, including analytical performance (precision, reproducibility, detection limits, analytical specificity, assay cut-off) and method comparison studies against the predicate device.

## Technological Characteristics

Lateral-flow immunochromatographic assay. Components: plastic housing, nitrocellulose membrane, dye pad with gold colloidal particles. Capture molecules: monoclonal mouse anti-CK-MB, monoclonal mouse anti-Myoglobin, streptavidin, goat anti-mouse antibody. Conjugates: biotinylated cTnl antibody, gold-labeled CK-MM, cTnl, and Myoglobin antibodies. Storage: 2-30°C. Standalone, non-electronic, visual read.

## Regulatory Identification

A creatine phosphokinase/creatine kinase or isoenzymes test system is a device intended to measure the activity of the enzyme creatine phosphokinase or its isoenzymes (a group of enzymes with similar biological activity) in plasma and serum. Measurements of creatine phosphokinase and its isoenzymes are used in the diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction and muscle diseases such as progressive, Duchenne-type muscular dystrophy.

# K. Standard/Guidance Document Referenced (if applicable):

The sponsor did not reference any standards or guidance documents.

# L. Test Principle:

The test is an immunochromatography assay for the qualitative determination of three cardiac markers simultaneously in serum and heparinized plasma. The membrane strip contains three test lines and one control line; immobilized monoclonal mouse antibody against CK-MB, monoclonal mouse antibody against Myoglobin, streptavidin for biotinylated cTnI antibody, and goat anti-mouse antibody for control line. A dye pad is placed at the end of the membrane containing biotinylated cTnI antibody and gold colloidal particles coupled with CK-MM, cTnI and Myoglobin antibodies. When a sample is applied into the sample well, the cardiac makers present in the sample bind to the specific antibodies coupled with gold particles. cTnI in a sample binds to both cTnI specific dye coupled antibody and biotinylated antibody. The immune complexes move along the nitrocellulose membrane through the test lines and bind to their corresponding capture antibodies immobilized on the test line. Unbound immune complexes pass through the test line and are captured by goat anti mouse antibody in the control line.

If the concentration of any of these three markers in the sample is above the cutoff level, red bands appear at the corresponding test lines and the control line. If the concentration of the markers in the sample is lower than the cutoff level, only the control line can be seen in the test window. The control line is present to validate that an adequate volume of sample has

been added.

## M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):

### 1. Analytical performance:

#### a. Precision/Reproducibility:

Two Clinical sites and one in-house operator were provided with blindly labeled serum samples. All operators had experience with in vitro device testing.

Samples were prepared by diluting patient serum samples with normal serum to the desired concentrations. Normal human serum samples were also evaluated.

Each sample was tested using 5 devices at each testing site.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Not applicable. The assay is intended for qualitative use.

c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
The test kit has an internal control to ensure that an adequate volume of sample is added. External Quality Controls are available from commercial sources. Specific controls are not identified in the labeling.

The sponsor does not indicate any degree of traceability for the device. However, the device is calibrated during the manufacturing process to working standards prepared to known concentrations of the analytes.

d. Detection limit:
Performance around the claimed cutoff concentration of the assay is characterized by the precision section, above.

e. Analytical specificity:
Potentially interfering endogenous substances were spiked into normal serums and into serums containing either cTnI, CK-MB or Myoglobin at concentrations approximately 1.5 times the cutoff concentration of the assay. The substances did not interfere with the expected results, i.e., spiked and unspiked sample results were the same.
