Indications for Use

The COULTER® CellPrep is an automated system that processes human blood for preparation of leukocyte suspensions for quantitative immunofluorescence analysis by optical flow cytometers. The use of data generated by this instrument depends on the requlatory status of the reagents you use. If the reagent is labeled by the manufacturer "For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures," federal law prohibits the use of the data for diagnosis. This product is intended "For In Vitro Diagnostic Use" when using the "IVDImmunophenotype" protocol and processing whole blood samples with COULTER reagents and antibodies labeled for In Vitro Diagnostic Use.

Device Story

COULTER® CellPrep is a compact, fully automated workstation for processing human blood samples. It performs cell washing, dilution, and concentration to prepare leukocyte suspensions for flow cytometry. By removing background components like plasma, media, excess tagged antibodies, and fluorescent drug compounds, the device enhances fluorescent separation of positive and negative cells. Operated in clinical laboratory settings, the system automates sample preparation workflows, ensuring consistent cell suspension quality for downstream immunophenotyping. It benefits patients by improving the accuracy and reliability of quantitative immunofluorescence analysis.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence supported by performance data in the premarket notification.

Technological Characteristics

Automated blood cell diluting apparatus (21 CFR 864.5240). Compact, fully automated workstation. Performs programmable cell wash, dilution, and concentration operations. Designed for integration with optical flow cytometers.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the preparation of human blood leukocyte suspensions for quantitative immunofluorescence analysis via optical flow cytometry. Intended for use with IVD-labeled reagents and antibodies for diagnostic purposes, or research-use-only reagents for non-diagnostic applications.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An automated blood cell diluting apparatus is a fully automated or semi-automated device used to make appropriate dilutions of a blood sample for further testing.

The use of data generated by this instrument depends on the requlatory status of the reagents you use. If the reagent is labeled by the manufacturer "For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures," federal law prohibits the use of the data for diagnosis. This product is intended "For In Vitro Diagnostic Use" when using the "IVDImmunophenotype" protocol and processing whole blood samples with COULTER reagents and antibodies labeled for In Vitro Diagnostic Use. # Clinical Significance: Separation of cells with a phenotypic low antigen density from cells with no phenotypic specificity can be modulated by a simple removal of background fluorescence such as plasma, media, excess tagged antibody, and fluorescent drug compounds. Removal of these components increases the fluorescent separation of positive and negative cells. # 7.0 Comparison to Predicate(s): COULTER® CellPrep is similar to the COULTER® Multi-Q-Prep. ### 8.0 Summary of Performance Data: The data in the Premarket Notification on safety and effectiveness supports a finding of substantial equivalence to products already in commercial distribution. This summary of safety and effectiveness is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of the Safe Medical Device Act of 1990 and the implementing regulation 21 CFR 807.92. {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
