Intended Use
VITROS Chemistry Products C3 and C4 reagents are used to quantitatively measure C3 and C4 concentration in human serum and plasma. Measurements of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components. VITROS Calibrator kit 20 is used to calibrate VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry System for quantitative measurement of transferrin, C3, C4, IgA and IgM (multianalytes). VITROS Chemistry Products Protein Performance Verifiers I, II and III are assayed controls used to monitor the performance of Transferrin, C3, C4, IgA and IgM Reagents on the FS 5,1 Chemistry Systems.
Device Story
VITROS Chemistry Products C3 and C4 reagents are liquid-based assays for use on the VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry System. The system, operated by laboratory personnel, automates the processing of human serum or plasma samples. The device utilizes immunoturbidimetry to measure C3 and C4 concentrations. The system also employs a dedicated Calibrator Kit 20 and Protein Performance Verifiers to ensure analytical accuracy and monitor performance. Output is a quantitative concentration value provided to the clinician, which assists in diagnosing immunologic disorders. The device benefits patients by providing rapid, automated diagnostic information regarding complement system status.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance validated via correlation studies comparing VITROS C3/C4 assays to predicate devices using patient samples. Results demonstrated strong linear correlation (C3: r=0.98, slope=0.95; C4: r=0.976, slope=0.93). Precision, analytical sensitivity, and specificity were evaluated to confirm performance equivalence.
Technological Characteristics
Thin-film, dry-reagent chemistry on polyester supports. Immunoturbidimetric sensing principle. Requires VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry System. Calibrators and controls prepared from processed human serum with buffers, salts, and preservatives. Traceable to IRMM/IFCC CRM 470. Complies with NCCLS guidelines EP5-A, EP-7A, EP-9A, C28.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an aid in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders associated with complement component deficiencies in human serum and plasma. Prescription use only.
Regulatory Classification

Dear Ms Phillips:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of October 19, 2004 regarding the VITROS Chemistry Products C3 Reagent, VITROS Chemistry Products C4 Reagent, VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 20 and VITROS Chemistry Products Protein Performance Verifiers I, II and III in which the VITROS Chemistry Products C4 Reagent was omitted from the listing of the trade name(s).
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the devices referenced above and have determined the devices are substantially equivalent [{for the indications for use stated in the enclosure)] to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). You may, therefore, market the devices, 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.
