Device Story
Assay uses enzymatic colorimetric method to measure creatinine in human serum, plasma, and urine; requires ABX PENTRA 400 Clinical Chemistry Analyzer. Process: creatinine converted to creatine via creatinine amidohydrolase; creatine broken down to sarcosine and urea; subsequent enzyme-linked steps with sarcosine oxidase and peroxidase produce colored chromogen measured at 545nm. System includes bi-reagent cassette, lyophilized human serum calibrator, and quality controls. Used in clinical laboratories by trained personnel. Output: quantitative creatinine concentration (mg/dL). Results assist clinicians in diagnosing/treating renal disease and monitoring dialysis. Benefits: provides standardized, automated measurement of renal function markers.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Precision evaluated per CLSI EP5-A2 (N=20/run, 80 total); serum CV% 0.29-4.12%, urine CV% 0.83-2.21%. Linearity per CLSI EP6-A; reportable range 0.11-16.95 mg/dL (serum), 3.56-175 mg/dL (urine). LoD/LoQ per CLSI EP17-A. Method comparison (N=153 serum, N=106 urine) against predicate showed high correlation (Slope 1.00/0.96, R2 0.999/0.997). Matrix comparison (N=40) confirmed no significant effect between serum, Li-Heparin, and EDTA plasma.

CLSI Guideline EP17-A
# L. Test Principle:
This enzymatic method for creatinine utilizes a multi-step approach ending with a photometric end-point reaction. The enzyme creatinine amidohydrolase is used to convert creatinine to creatine. Creatine is broken down to sarcosine and urea by creatine amidinohydrolase. Further enzyme linked steps with sarcosine oxidase and peroxidase yield a colored chromogen read at $545\mathrm{nm}$ .
# M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
# 1. Analytical performance:
# a. Precision/Reproducibility:
# Study Protocol:
Within run precision was established by assaying two levels of control and patient samples 20 times in a single run. Total precision was established by assaying the same set of samples in duplicate twice a day for 20 days. The results are summarized below.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
# Study Protocol:
Linearity was evaluated following CLSI guideline EP6-A. For serum linearity, a spiked serum sample was used as the high sample and a diluted serum sample (2x in $0.9\%$ NaCl) was used as the low sample. The intermediate concentrations in creatinine were prepared by serial dilution of the highest sample using the low sample as the diluents. For urine linearity, a spiked urine sample was used as the high sample and $0.9\%$ NaCl was used as the low sample. For both studies, the mean of 4 replicate measurements were used in the regression analysis.
# Summary:
Based on results of the linearity study and the limit of detection study (see below in $d$ ), the sponsor claimed that the reportable range for the serum assay is $0.11 - 16.95 \, \mathrm{mg/dL}$ , the reportable range for urine assay is $3.55 - 175 \, \mathrm{mg/dL}$ . The sponsor has also provided data to support that automatic dilution can go up to $50.85 \, \mathrm{mg/dL}$ for serum and $846.9 \, \mathrm{mg/dL}$ for urine.
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
# Traceability:
The ABX PENTRA enzymatic creatinine assay, calibrators, and controls are traceable to NIST reference material SRM909b.
# Stability:
Real-time testing was conducted. The stability study protocol and the acceptance criteria have been reviewed and found to be acceptable. The study results support the following stability claims in the labeling:
Closed-Vial and Open-Vial Stability
| Item | Storage Conditions | | Claimed Stability |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Reagent Packs | Close-Vial | 2-8°C | 18 months |
| | Open-Vial | On system, 2-8°C | 30 days |
| Calibrators | Close-Vial | 2-8°C | 24 months |
| | Open-Vial | -25 °C to -15°C | 2 weeks |
| | | 2-8°C | 2 days |
| | | 15°C to 25°C | 8 hours |
| Serum controls | Close-Vial | 2-8°C | 30 months |
| | Open-Vial | -25 °C to -15°C | 1 month |
| | | 2-8°C | 5 days |

| Urine Controls | Close-Vial | 2-8°C | 2 years |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| | Open-Vial | 2-8°C | 30 days |
## Calibration Interval:
Stability across a 14 day calibration interval was assessed by calculating the percentage bias of 2 control specimens on each day from the result obtained on day 0. The results support the product claim of a 14-day calibration interval. The sponsor also noted in the labeling that a recalibration is recommended when reagent lots change, and when quality control results fall outside the range established.
## Value Assignment:
- Calibrators: The target value is determined by the median of 150 results from 6 ABX PENTRA 400 analyzers. The median is acceptable when percentage deviation is less than 10%.
- Controls: The target value is determined by the median of 150 results from 6 ABX PENTRA 400 analyzers. The median is acceptable when percentage deviation is less than 10%. The lot specific range was assigned as mean ± 3 SD. If 3 SD > 20% compared to the target value, the acceptable percentage will be of 20%, if 3SD < 10% compared to the target values, the acceptable percentage will be 10%.
## d. Detection limit:
### Study Protocol:
Limit of Blank (LoB) and Limit of Detection (LoD) were determined following CLSI guideline EP17-A. For LoB determination, 0.9% NaCl was used as the Zero sample and assayed 90 times on 3 different Pentra 400 instruments. For LoD determination, 4 altered serum or urine samples with creatinine concentrations between LoB and 4xLoB were assayed 20 times for each sample.
For LoQ determination, a range of low concentration samples were prepared by 10% serial dilution and were assayed 10 times for each sample. The CV% and the bias at each tested concentration were calculated. LoQ is defined as the lowest concentration that meets CV% < 15% and the relative bias is in the +/-10% range.
## Summary:
Based on the limit of quantitation determined in this study (see result in the below table) and the result from the linearity study in M1 b, the sponsor claimed a detection limit of 3.56 mg/dL in the labeling.
| | LoB | LoD | LoQ |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Serum | 0.011 mg/dl | 0.026 mg/dl | 0.11 mg/dl |
| Urine | 0.011 mg/dl | 0.66 mg/dl | 1.71 mg/dl |

e. Analytical specificity:
- Interference
**Study Protocol:**
The sponsor evaluated the effect of the interfering substances following the Valtec guideline (Vassault et al., Ann. Biol. Clin., 1986, (44), 686-745).
Pooled serum/urine samples with low and high levels of creatinine (approximately 1.5 mg/dL, 6.5 mg/dL in the serum pools, and 11 mg/dL and 88 mg/dL in the urine pools) were used as the base samples. Each interfering substance was added to the base samples and tested at 4 different concentrations.
**Result Summary:**
Based on the sponsor-defined limit of ± 5% bias between sample with and without interfering substances, the following claims were made:
**Serum assay:**
The below compounds at the indicated concentration do not cause significant interference with the serum assay.
| Compound | Concentration up to |
| --- | --- |
| Haemoglobin | 500 mg/dL |
| Triglycerides | 612.5 mg/dL |
| Total Bilirubin | 27.4 mg/dL |
| Direct Bilirubin | 9.9 mg/dL |
**Urine assay:**
The below compounds at the indicated concentration do not cause significant interference with the serum assay.
| Compound | Concentration up to |
