## L. Test Principle:
The Diazyme Myoglobin Assay is based on a latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay. When an antigen-antibody reaction occurs between myoglobin in a sample and
{5}
anti-myoglobin antibodies which have been sensitized to latex particles, agglutination occurs. This agglutination is detected as an absorbance change (570 nm), with the magnitude of the change being proportional to the quantity of myoglobin in the sample. The actual concentration is then determined by the interpolation from a calibration curve prepared from calibrators of known concentration.
## M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
Performance characteristics were established on the Hitachi 917 analyzer
## 1. Analytical performance:
### a. Precision/Reproducibility:
The precision of the Diazyme Myoglobin Assay was evaluated following CLSI guidance document EP5-A2. Three levels of Myoglobin serum controls and three levels of serum specimens were tested in duplicate for 2 runs per day over 20 working days. One lot of reagent was used for this study.
Within-run and total precision are presented in the table below.
| | N | Mean (ng/mL) | Within Run | | Total | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| | | | SD | % CV | SD | % CV |
| Control 1 | 80 | 66 | 2.45 | 3.71 | 3.37 | 5.10 |

| Serum 3 | 20 | 414 | 19.7 | 4.80 | 21.8 | 5.3 |
### b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
The claimed measuring range of the Diazyme Myoglobin assay is 13.2 to 615.9 ng/mL. Eleven levels of samples were prepared by diluting a serum-based sample with a high level of spiked Myoglobin with saline according to CLSI EP6-A to produce linearity samples ranging from 10.11 to 623.8 ng/mL. The linearity samples were tested in triplicate using 1 lot of Diazyme Myoglobin reagent.
Linear regression analysis provided the following fit equation for a graph of the observed (y-axis) vs expected (x-axis) myoglobin concentrations: slope = 0.9798, intercept = -5.1076, r² = 0.9983. Percent Error for each of the dilutions is shown below:
| Level | Recovery Mean | Expected Recovery | Difference | Percent Difference |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 11 | 623.83 | 625 | -1.17 | 0% |

To test for High Dose “Hook Effect”, a dilution series of 20 samples, ranging from 260 to 49260 ng/mL was prepared from spiked serum samples. The samples were tested in triplicate using 1 lot of Diazyme Myoglobin assay, and showed that no High Dose “Hook Effect” occurred up to 15000 ng/mL of Myoglobin.
A sample dilution study was performed to demonstrate that manual 1:1 dilution of serum samples exceeding 615.9 ng/mL with saline results in accurate myoglobin value determination. Three samples were analyzed in triplicate, undiluted and diluted, on the Diazyme Myoglobin assay and percent recovery of the diluted samples was determined. The study indicates that samples up to 849.07 ng/mL may be accurately determined by 1:1 dilution with saline prior to analysis.
| Sample | Undiluted Value | Diluted Value x Dilution factor | Percent Recovery |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| #1 | 617.73 | 630.21 | 102% |
| #2 | 702.49 | 735.45 | 105% |
| #3 | 784.06 | 849.07 | 108% |

**Diazyme Myoglobin Calibration Stability:**
Myoglobin assay calibration stability was assessed, and the sponsor claims that calibration is stable for 28 days. The protocol and acceptance criteria have been provided and were found to be adequate to support the sponsor’s claims.
**Calibrator Traceability and value assignment:**
The calibrators for the Diazyme Myoglobin Assay are traceable to a commercially available, FDA cleared assay, and were prepared by spiking Myoglobin stock solution into a diluted human serum to the target concentrations. Value assignment of the myoglobin calibrators was established by transferring the target values from the predicate method to the in-house
{7}
master calibrators.
## Control value assignment:
Myoglobin controls are prepared by spiking Myoglobin stock solution to diluted pooled human serum to the target Myoglobin concentrations. Diazyme Myoglobin reagents and calibrators were used in replicate analysis to determine the mean value of the control materials. Target values for Myoglobin level I and II controls are 50 ng/mL and 330 ng/mL, respectively. Lot specific target ranges are provided in the value assignment sheet.
## Control Stability:
Real time stability testing demonstrated that the Diazyme Myoglobin controls were stable for 6 months at 2-8°C. Real time stability studies are on-going.
Open vial stability testing at 2-8°C showed that calibrators are stable for at least 3 months after opening. Open vial stability studies are ongoing.
## Calibrator Stability:

Stability study protocols and acceptance criteria have been provided and found to be adequate to support the sponsor's claims.
## d. Detection limit:
The LoB, LoD, and LoQ of the Diazyme Myoglobin Assay were determined according to CLSI EP17-A. LoB tests were conducted using blank samples (7.5% BSA) tested with 60 replicates with one reagent lot and one instrument. LoB, calculated as the mean of the 57th and 58th highest blank values was determined to be 4.4 ng/mL.
For LoD studies, five low, diluted serum samples were tested with 4 replicates, in each of 3 runs, with one reagent lot and one instrument. The LOD was calculated as the LOB + (1.645 * SD of LOD samples). The LoD was determined to be 8.2 ng/mL.
Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) determination was based on interassay precision of ≤20% for 8 replicate measurements of 5 low serum samples, per day for 5 days, using 1 lot of Diazyme Myoglobin reagent and 1 instrument. The LoQ was determined to be 13.23 ng/mL for the Diazyme Myoglobin assay.

a. Method comparison with predicate device:
Method Comparison of the Diazyme Myoglobin Assay versus the predicate assay was performed according to CLSI guidance document EP9-A2. Fifty-seven unaltered lithium heparin plasma samples and 9 altered lithium heparin plasma samples, ranging from 16.9 to 478.0 ng/mL, were tested in singlicate on the predicate and subject devices, using 1 lot of Myoglobin reagent. Deming regression analysis of a plot of the calculated concentrations from the Diazyme Myoglobin Assay (Y-axis) versus the predicate device (X-axis) produced an equation of Y = 0.959X - 5.141, r² = 0.9855. The 95% CI for slope and intercept are 0.930 to 0.988 and -10.16 to -0.12, respectively.
b. Matrix comparison:
Matrix comparison studies were completed by analyzing 40 paired Serum, EDTA plasma and Lithium Heparin plasma samples in singlicate using 1 lot of the Diazyme Myoglobin Assay. The samples had serum myoglobin values ranging from 25.35 to 509.07 ng/mL, and 4 were spiked with myoglobin. Linear regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between plasma and serum samples. For serum vs. K3 EDTA, the linear regression equation was y = 0.9829x - 2.865, r² = 0.9949. For serum vs. Lithium heparin plasma, the linear regression equation was y = 0.9999x + 2.6558, r² = 0.9978.
The sponsor concluded that Lithium heparin plasma and EDTA plasma are acceptable anti-coagulants to be used with the Diazyme Myoglobin assay.
