The Diazyme Cystatin C Assay is an in-vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative determination of Cystatin C in serum or plasma by latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric method. The measurement of Cystatin C is used as an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of renal disease.
Device Story
Diazyme Cystatin C Assay is an in-vitro diagnostic reagent kit; utilizes latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric technology to measure Cystatin C levels in human serum or plasma samples. Principle of operation involves antigen-antibody reaction where Cystatin C in sample binds to anti-Cystatin C antibody-coated latex particles, causing turbidity proportional to Cystatin C concentration. Measured via clinical chemistry analyzer; results provide quantitative data to clinicians for assessing renal function and diagnosing/treating renal disease. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained laboratory personnel. Benefits include objective assessment of kidney function to guide clinical management.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence established via bench testing, including analytical performance studies (precision, linearity, sensitivity, and interference testing) comparing the subject device to the predicate.
Technological Characteristics
Latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay; liquid-stable reagent format. Measures turbidity change at specific wavelengths on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. Designed for in-vitro diagnostic use. No specific materials or software algorithms described beyond standard immunoturbidimetric principles.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative determination of Cystatin C in human serum or plasma to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of renal disease. For prescription use only.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A creatinine test system is a device intended to measure creatinine levels in plasma and urine. Creatinine measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of renal diseases, in monitoring renal dialysis, and as a calculation basis for measuring other urine analytes.

Dear Dr. Datta:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is 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 application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, 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.
If your device is classified (see above),into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).
