The device consists of a battery powered light source that uses a blue-white LED, a rigid diffused fiber optic light guide. It is used in conjunction with a non-toxic dilute (1%) acetic acid rinse for the viewing of oral lesions. The fiber optic illuminator itself is non-tissue contacting, and is classified as a 510(k) Exempt FDA Device. Intended Use: The Microlux/DL is used as an aid to improve visualization of oral lesions. ### Characteristics of Microlux/DL Compared to Predicate Device: The Microlux DL compares favorably and is substantially equivalent to another legally marketed device. The Microlux DL functions in a manner similar to and is used for the same purpose as the Speculite/OraLite manufactured by Trylon Corp. It is also sold under the name Visilite™ by Zila, Inc. The 510K number of the predicate device is K012070 and K003995. The OraLite uses a chemical luminescent light source that produces a diffused blue-white light. The Microlux DL uses a blue-white LED and a diffused fiber optic light guide to provide a diffused blue-white light. The LED in the Microlux/DL has a color temperature of 6500°K and nominal chromaticity coordinates of X= .31 and Y =.32. The OraLite uses a 1% acetic acid mouth rinse prior to examination. The Microlux DL uses a 1% acetic acid mouth rinse prior to examination. Essentially, the only difference between the Microlux DL and the predicate device is that the Microlux DL uses a Blue-White LED as a light source and the Visilite uses a Blue-White chemical luminescent light source. The associated 1% acetic rinse and diagnostic procedure are identical. {1}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/1/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
