Indications for Use
The Optilite IgA Kit is intended for the quantitative in vitro measurement of IgA in serum, lithium heparin or EDTA plasma using the Binding Site Optilite analyser. Measurement of IgA aids in the diagnosis of abnormal protein metabolism and the body's lack of ability to resist infectious agents. This test should be used in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings.
Device Story
The Optilite IgA Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent system used on the Binding Site Optilite analyser. It utilizes immunoturbidimetry to measure IgA concentration in patient serum or plasma samples. The device employs goat anti-IgA antibodies that react with IgA in the sample to form insoluble complexes. When light passes through this suspension, the transmitted light is measured by a photodiode; the intensity of transmitted light is inversely proportional to the IgA concentration. The analyser automatically calculates concentrations using a stored calibration curve. The device is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results assist clinicians in diagnosing abnormal protein metabolism and immune system deficiencies. The modification in this submission involves changing the detection antibody source from sheep to goat, with performance verified through precision, linearity, and method comparison studies against the predicate.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical studies were performed. Evidence consists of analytical bench testing, including precision (repeatability, within-lab, between-instrument, and between-lot), linearity, and method comparison against the predicate using 102 serum and 42 plasma samples. Method comparison showed a correlation coefficient of 0.998 and a mean bias of 2.38%. Reference interval transfer was verified using 20 healthy donor samples.
Technological Characteristics
Immunoturbidimetric assay; utilizes goat anti-IgA antisera; designed for use on the Optilite analyzer; quantitative measurement of human IgA in serum/plasma.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative determination of human IgA in serum and plasma to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of IgA deficiency, myeloma, and other immunoglobulin-related diseases.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An immunoglobulins A, G, M, D, and E immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the immunoglobulins A, G, M, D, an E (serum antibodies) in serum. Measurement of these immunoglobulins aids in the diagnosis of abnormal protein metabolism and the body's lack of ability to resist infectious agents.
