MSC SFM is a liquid tissue culture medium product intended for human ex-vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications.
MSC SFM is a serum-free medium specially formulated for the growth and expansion of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MSC SFM contains MSC SFM Basal Medium and MSC SFM supplement, MSC SFM supplement is a growth factor that should be added to the MSC SFM Basal Medium when use. Using MSC SFM, human MSCs can be expanded for multiple passages while maintaining their trilineage mesoderm potential (i.e., ability to differentiate into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages). Each container is aseptically filled.
The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA for a device called "MSC SFM" by Yocon Biology Technology Company. This document primarily describes the regulatory review process and establishes substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
Crucially, this document is for a "Tissue Culture Media For Human Ex Vivo Tissue And Cell Culture Processing Applications" (Product Code: NDS). This is a biological reagent, not an AI/ML-driven medical device that analyzes images or patient data to produce diagnostic or prognostic outputs. Therefore, many of the requested elements regarding acceptance criteria and study design for AI/ML devices (e.g., number of experts for ground truth, MRMC study, effect size of human improvement with AI, standalone performance) are not applicable to this type of product and are not found in the provided text.
The acceptance criteria discussed in this document pertain to the performance and safety of the tissue culture media itself, not the performance of an AI algorithm.
However, based on the information provided, here's what can be extracted and inferred, addressing the spirit of the request where applicable to this specific product, and explicitly stating when information is not applicable or not provided in the document for AI/ML-specific criteria.
Device Type: Tissue Culture Media for Human Ex Vivo Tissue and Cell Culture Processing Applications (Biological Reagent)
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document refers to performance standards established in the FDA Guidance Document "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Tissue Culture Media for Human Ex Vivo Tissue and Cell Culture Processing Applications; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Reviewers," issued May 16, 2001.

CT-STOR is a liquid culture media intended for ex vivo cell and tissue processing applications
CT-STOR is a tissue culture media intended for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications. AIM-V® is the predicate device and is also a tissue culture media intended for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications. CT-STOR and AIM-V® are composed of chemically defined nutrient materials in solution (with or without supplements) that are essential for the survival and development of tissue or cells of human or other animal origin. These nutrients are provided in liquid form for use in supporting the growth or maintenance of human tissue and cells.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the CT-STOR device, based on the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Acceptance Criterion (Description) | Reported Device Performance (CT-STOR) |
---|---|
Seeding Comparison (%) | 95.09% (at 8 days aged) |
Acceptable Limit: > 75% | 173.43% (at 128 days aged) |
(Note: The table in the document only provides a single acceptance criterion for CT-STOR stability, which is "Seeding Comparison (%)" with an "Acceptable Limit: > 75%". The reported device performance exceeds this limit at both 8 and 128 days aged.)
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
For the non-clinical performance testing of CT-STOR stability:
- Sample Size: The study used "Primary HDFa cells were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, PCS-201-012, Primary Dermal Fibroblast; Normal, Human, Adult (HDFa), Manassas, VA)".
- Specifically, cells were "plated at 10,000 cells per well on a 24-well plate." The exact number of wells or replicates is not explicitly stated, but it implies multiple wells were used for testing and control.
- Data Provenance: The cells were purchased from ATCC, a common biological resource. The study itself appears to be a prospective non-clinical study performed by Energy Delivery Solutions to validate the stability of CT-STOR. The origin of the human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) is stated as "Normal, Human, Adult."
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This information is not provided in the document. The study described is a non-clinical, in-vitro stability study using cell culture, not a study requiring expert clinical assessment for ground truth. The "ground truth" here is the measured cell proliferation compared against a predefined acceptable limit.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable as the described study is a non-clinical, in-vitro stability study measuring cell proliferation, not a study requiring human interpretation or adjudication.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, If So, What Was the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve With AI vs Without AI Assistance
This information is not applicable. The device, CT-STOR, is a "liquid culture media intended for ex vivo cell and tissue processing applications," not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool for human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is irrelevant to this device.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
This information is not applicable. As stated above, CT-STOR is a culture medium, not an algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for the non-clinical stability study was established by quantitative measurement of cell proliferation (seeding comparison percentage) compared against a pre-defined acceptable limit (> 75%). This can be considered an objective, laboratory-based ground truth.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This information is not applicable. CT-STOR is a chemical composition (culture media), not a machine learning algorithm that requires a training set. The "formula for CT-STOR has remained the same since it was first manufactured with only a few minor alterations to composition."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
This information is not applicable as there is no training set for this type of device. The formulation of CT-STOR is based on established scientific principles regarding essential nutrients for cell and tissue viability, as well as modifications over time based on apparently non-ML-driven optimization. The document mentions that the product's efficacy has been "well established in scientific publications included in this submission," suggesting reliance on existing biological and chemical knowledge.

Expansion of CD3+ T lymphocytes | > 3 x 10⁶ cells/mL in static conditions and > 2 x 10⁷ cells/ML in Wave bags. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not explicitly state a specific "test set" sample size in terms of number of human subjects or distinct samples for the OpTmizer™ CTS™ T-Cell Expansion SFM. The pre-clinical testing outlined refers to:
- OpTmizer QC Performance Assay: This assay would involve specific sample sizes of cells or tissues tested under defined conditions. The exact number is not provided.
- LAL test: This is a standard test for endotoxins and would be performed on samples of the manufactured medium. The specific number of lots or samples tested is not detailed.
- Sterility Assurance Level (SAL): This is a validation process typically involving multiple sterilization cycles and microbiological challenging, not a "sample size" in the conventional sense of a clinical study.
- Incoming Raw Material testing: This is a quality control process for the components of the medium.
- Stability/Shelf-Life testing: This involves testing "a minimum of one new production lot of OpTmizer™ CTS™ T-Cell Expansion SFM" each year. Retained product stored at 2-8°C is also tested (no specific number of retained lots specified).
The data provenance is not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective in the context of a "study" involving human data. Instead, it refers to ongoing quality control and product development testing within Life Technologies Corporation. The data originates from internal company testing and adherence to established regulatory and scientific methodologies for tissue culture media. There is no mention of country of origin for the data as it pertains to clinical data, but the manufacturing facility is in Grand Island, New York, implying internal testing would be conducted within the US or its affiliated labs.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
This information is not applicable and not provided. The "ground truth" for this device is based on established scientific and regulatory standards for biocompatibility, sterility, chemical purity, and functional performance of tissue culture media. There is no mention of external "experts" establishing a "ground truth" for a test set in the way one would for diagnostic imaging. Rather, the device's performance is validated against predefined technical specifications and regulatory guidelines.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable. Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) are typically used in studies where human interpreters are assessing and classifying data, and disagreements need to be resolved. This is not a human-in-the-loop diagnostic device requiring such an adjudication process.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Effect Size
No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic devices that involve human interpretation of results, often with AI assistance, and aims to measure the improvement in human performance. The OpTmizer™ CTS™ T-Cell Expansion SFM is a consumable tissue culture medium, not a diagnostic or AI-assisted interpretation tool.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done
Yes, the testing described is effectively "standalone" performance, as it evaluates the properties and functionality of the medium itself without human intervention in operating the device for its core function. The "device" (the medium) performs its function (supporting cell growth, sterility, etc.) inherently. The performance is assessed by laboratory assays and quality control measures.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for this device is based on objective laboratory measurements and established scientific and regulatory standards. This includes:
- Cell growth and viability metrics: Quantifiable measures of cell expansion (e.g., cell counts, viability percentages), functionality, and lack of cytotoxicity as measured by the OpTmizer QC Performance Assay.
- Microbiological testing: Absence of endotoxins (LAL test) and demonstration of sterility (SAL determination).
- Chemical purity specifications: Conformance to USP, ACS, FCC, GIBCO, or Cell Culture requirements for raw materials.
- pH specifications: Maintaining pH within a defined range over time.
- Container/closure integrity: Absence of microbial contamination.
There is no "expert consensus," "pathology," or "outcomes data" in the clinical sense directly establishing a ground truth for the medium itself, as it is a foundational research/manufacturing material rather than a diagnostic or therapeutic medical device applied directly to patients where clinical outcomes are the primary ground truth.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not explicitly mention a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI. The development of OpTmizer™ CTS™ T-Cell Expansion SFM involved research and development, where various formulations and conditions would have been tested to optimize its performance ("OpTmizer™ CTS™ T-Cell Expansion SFM has been developed for the growth and expansion of human T lymphocytes"). This iterative development process would have involved numerous experiments and data points, but these are not quantified as a "training set" in the presented information.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Given that a "training set" in the AI/machine learning sense is not explicitly discussed, the "ground truth" for product development and optimization would have been established through:
- Experimental results: Direct measurements of cell growth (e.g., T-cell expansion, viability) under various medium formulations.
- Literature and scientific understanding: Utilizing existing knowledge about nutrient requirements for T-cell growth and factors affecting cell culture media performance.
- Internal research and development objectives: Setting specific performance targets (e.g., target CD3+ cell densities) and developing formulations to achieve these targets.
- Adherence to regulatory guidelines: Ensuring that the medium's components and intended use comply with relevant standards.

Intended Use | Met: Both AIM-V® Medium and DMEM are intended for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications. Both are chemically defined tissue culture media used to support the growth or maintenance of human tissue or cells in culture. |
Principles of Operation | Met: Both devices operate on the principle of providing essential chemically defined nutrient materials in solution to support the survival, growth, development, and maintenance of human tissue or cells. AIM-V® is a serum-free medium formulated to support adoptive immunotherapy and has a growing list of applications for culturing various cell lines and investigating signal transduction pathways. |
Technological Characteristics | Met: AIM-V® Medium is prepared from a master formulation including Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium, HEPES buffer, human serum albumin.USP, human transferrin, and cholesterol, NF. The formula has remained consistent. This composition provides the necessary components for cellular support, similar to how DMEM functions. |
Efficacy | Met: Both products demonstrate "generic cellular growth and maintenance." The efficacy of AIM-V® in supporting the survival, growth, development, and maintenance of human cells or tissue culture systems has been "well established in scientific publications included in this submission." |
Safety | Met: Both products demonstrate "consistency in chemical content and formulation, biocompatibility with cells, and purity." Both are manufactured in accordance with QSR (Quality System Regulation) requirements and are labeled as aseptically processed. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Not Applicable. This is a 510(k) submission for tissue culture media, not a diagnostic device with performance testing against a specific test set of data. The "study" for substantial equivalence is a comparison of product characteristics and established scientific literature.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
- Not Applicable. Ground truth, in the context of expert consensus, is not relevant for demonstrating substantial equivalence of tissue culture media. Efficacy is supported by "scientific publications."
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not Applicable. No adjudication method is described or relevant for this type of submission.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
- Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML-based device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML-based device.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
- For "efficacy" (supporting cell growth and maintenance), the ground truth is established through scientific literature and established biological principles of cell culture, rather than a specific "ground truth" derived from expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in the context of a diagnostic AI product. The submission states efficacy is "well established in scientific publications included in this submission."
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML-based device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not Applicable. This is not an AI/ML-based device.
Summary of the Study Proving Acceptance Criteria:
The "study" described in the 510(k) summary is a comparison of characteristics and scientific justification for substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium - DMEM), rather than a traditional clinical trial or performance study against a ground truth dataset commonly associated with AI/diagnostic devices.
The justification is based on:
- Direct comparison of Intended Use: Both AIM-V® and DMEM are for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing.
- Comparison of Principles of Operation and Technological Characteristics: Both provide essential nutrients for cell growth and maintenance. AIM-V®'s specific components (HEPES buffer, HSA, transferrin, cholesterol) are detailed, highlighting its formulation derived from DMEM.
- Reliance on Established Scientific Literature: The efficacy of AIM-V® in supporting cell survival, growth, and maintenance is declared "well established in scientific publications included in this submission." This suggests that previous research and published studies using AIM-V® serve as the evidence base for its performance.
- Compliance with Quality System Regulations (QSR): Both devices are manufactured under QSR and aseptically processed, ensuring safety and consistency.
In essence, the "study" is a regulatory assessment demonstrating that the new device (AIM-V®) is sufficiently similar to a previously approved device (DMEM) in its purpose, composition, and expected biological performance, supported by existing scientific knowledge.
