The Roche Diagnostics C.f.a.s. (Calibrator for automated systems) HbA1c is for use in the calibration of quantitative Roche methods on Roche clinical chemistry analyzers as specified in the enclosed value sheet. For Prescription use only.
Device Story
C.f.a.s. HbA1c is a single-level lyophilized calibrator composed of hemolyzed sheep and human blood; used to calibrate quantitative Roche HbA1c methods on Roche clinical chemistry analyzers. The product is reconstituted with 2.0 mL of distilled or deionized water by laboratory personnel. Once loaded onto the analyzer, the system automatically performs dilutions to generate six calibration levels. The resulting calibration curve allows the analyzer to accurately quantify HbA1c levels in patient samples. This process ensures the accuracy of clinical chemistry measurements, supporting healthcare providers in the diagnosis and monitoring of glycemic control in patients.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of analytical performance and stability testing. Traceability established to CRM 522 (Hb) and IFCC reference method (HbA1c) via multi-laboratory value assignment. Real-time shelf-life stability (up to 30 months) and accelerated stability (5 days at 35°C) confirmed recovery within ±10% of assigned values. Reconstituted stability confirmed for 8 hours at 30°C, 2 days at 4°C, and 3 months at -20°C.
Technological Characteristics
Lyophilized calibrator; matrix: hemolyzed sheep blood with human blood additives and 0.9% TTAB. Reconstituted with distilled/deionized water. Traceable to CRM 522 and IFCC reference materials. Barcode-encoded for automated analyzer calibration. Stability: 30 months shelf-life at 2-8°C.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a calibrator for quantitative Roche HbA1c methods on Roche clinical chemistry analyzers (specifically Cobas Integra 800).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A calibrator for hemoglobin or hematocrit measurement is a device that approximates whole blood, red blood cells, or a hemoglobin derivative and that is used to set instruments intended to measure hemoglobin, the hematocrit, or both. It is a material whose characteristics have been precisely and accurately determined.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 864.9.

| Device description | C.f.a.s. HbA1c is single-level lyophilized calibrator based on hemolyzed sheep blood and human blood. The concentrations of the calibrator components have been adjusted to ensure optimal calibration of the appropriate Roche methods on clinical chemistry analyzers. During use, calibrator dilutions are prepared automatically on-board the analyzer resulting in six levels. |
| Intended use | C.f.a.s. (Calibrator for automated systems) HbA1c is for use in the calibration of quantitative Roche methods on Roche clinical chemistry analyzers as specified in the enclosed value sheet. |
| Predicate device | We claim substantial equivalence to the calibrator included in the Tina-Quant HbA1c reagent kit, originally cleared under K934070. |
| | C.f.a.s. HbA1c is identical to this calibrator; however, it is now being provided at a single-level and sold as a separate product. |
