A Device Description:
The Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 is an automated fecal occult blood test system for the qualitative detection of fecal occult blood. It is intended for professional use only. The test system consists of a test cartridge, a sample collection tube, an analyzer, controls and calibration cartridges. The Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 system is a sandwich immunoassay that employs a combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to selectively identify human hemoglobin (hHb) in test samples. It consists of:
Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 Reader with Sample Tray
It is an automated camera-based analyzer. Digital imaging is used to analyze the intensity of the test and control lines resulting from the introduction of the sample to the sandwich dye-conjugate immunoassay. The results (positive, negative, or invalid) are reported on a display screen and as a printout.
The sample tray comprises of a turntable and a turntable motor with a mechanism that positions and controls the sample diluent on the test strip.
Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 Test Cartridge Kit
The Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 adopts a patented test cartridge system which is comprised of:
Test Cartridge: It is a polystyrene plastic case that contains a test strip composed of a plastic plate, a water absorption plate, a nitrocellulose film, colloidal gold, and water absorption paper. The nitrocellulose membrane consists of a control line (line C) coated with sheep anti-mouse polyclonal antibody and a reaction line (line T) coated with mouse anti-human hemoglobin monoclonal antibody. The test strip and cartridge are assembled and designed to prevent any ingress of liquid or air that affects the performance of the test strip and, when the sample buffer collection tube with the fecal material is inserted, prevents any spill outside the test cartridge, creating a clean-free system for the Hemosure Accu-Reader A100.
{2}
Sample Collection tube: It contains phosphate-buffered saline. The sample collected by the patient is inserted into the test cartridge (molded for correct insertion) and is placed into the reader sample tray.
## Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 Control
The Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 Control has two control solutions, positive control solution and negative control solution.
Positive control solutions are supplied as 2 mL or 5 mL, containing purified human hemoglobin, Tris buffer, bovine serum albumin, and 0.05% sodium azide. It is stored at 2–8°C.
Negative control solutions are supplied as 2 mL or 5 mL, containing Tris buffer, bovine serum albumin, and 0.05% sodium azide. It is stored at 2–8°C.
## Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 Calibration Cartridge Kit
The Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 is supplied with a Calibration Cartridge Kit to check the assay reading performance.
## B Principle of Operation:
The assay principle is based on an automated sandwich dye-conjugate immunoassay that employs a combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to selectively identify and provide qualitative determination of human hemoglobin (hHb) in feces. As the test sample flows through the absorbent device, the labeled antibody-dye conjugate binds to the hemoglobin in the specimen forming an antibody-antigen complex. This complex binds to another anti-hemoglobin antibody in the positive test reaction zone and produces a pink-rose color band. In the absence of hemoglobin, there is no line in the positive test reaction zone. The pink-rose color bands in the control reaction zone demonstrate that the reagents and devices are functioning correctly.
The Hemosure Accu-Reader™ A100 Reader with Sample Tray is an automated camera-based analyzer. Digital imaging is used to analyze the intensity of the test and control lines resulting from the introduction of the sample to the sandwich dye-conjugate immunoassay.
The samples are collected in the Sample Collection tube that is sent home with the patient. On return, the sample tube and test cartridge are assembled and placed on the sample tray. The analyzer positions the test cartridge to the plunger station to initiate the test cartridge testing by plunging the sample collection buffer tube into the chamber of the cartridge and thereby piercing its aluminum seal. The test fecal sample buffer is released into the test cartridge and fecal sample buffer will migrate on the enclosed test strip affixed on the test cartridge. Results are read after the tray makes one full rotation which takes 5 minutes. Immediately after sample reading, the result (positive, negative, or invalid) is displayed on the touchscreen and printed on paper whose dispensing slot is situated at the top of the Hemosure Accu-Reader A100.
## C Instrument Description Information:
1. Instrument Name: Hemosure® Accu-Reader™ A100 Reader with Sample Tray
2. Specimen Identification: The feces samples are collected into the Sample Collection tube, each of which includes a barcode. If patient sample ID barcodes are not available, patient sample information must be

120, 140, and 1000 ng/mL). Samples at different concentration were then spiked with each of the following: 0.5% (by weight) iron, 0.5% (by weight) vitamin C (sodium L-ascorbate), 2.5% (by weight) of broccoli extracts, 2.5% (by weight) cantaloupe extracts, 2.5% (by weight) horseradish extracts, 2.5% (by weight) red radish extracts, 2.5% (by weight) parsnip extracts, 2.5% (by weight) turnip extracts and 2.5% (by weight) cauliflower extracts. All samples were tested in 21 replicates. The results demonstrate no cross-reactivity of Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 with the dietary substances and vegetable extracts at the tested concentrations.
c) Interference
Interference of Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 with animal meat extracts, toilet cleaners and contaminants were evaluated using one lot of test cartridge. Hemoglobin free stool samples were spiked with normal Hb to obtain seven concentrations: 0, 80, 100, 110, 120, 140, and 1000 ng/mL. Samples at each concentration were then spiked with the following animal meat extracts: 2.5% of beef, 2.5% of pork, 2.5% of fish, 2.5% of chicken, 2.5% of lamb, 2.5% of horse, 2.5% of goat and 2.5% of rabbit. The results demonstrate no interference of Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 with animal meat extracts at the tested concentration.
For testing interference with toilet cleaners and other contaminants, Lime-A-Way (5 mg/mL), Clorox (5 mg/mL), Lysol bleach (5 mg/mL), Lysol cleaner (5 mg/mL), Scrubbing Bubbles (5 mg/mL), Bisacodyl enteric coated tablets (25 mg/mL), Sennoside tablets (25 mg/mL), glycerol enema (25 mg/mL), and hydrogen peroxide enema (25 mg/mL) were tested. All samples were tested in 21 replicates. The results demonstrate no interference of Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 with the interferents at the tested concentration.

Time points used in the real-time stability study included: 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36 and 37 months. Test cartridge kits were retrieved and tested with different hemoglobin concentrations at the end of each designated time point in the study. Seven hemoglobin concentrations of 0, 80, 100, 110, 120, 140 and 1000 ng/mL were used. The testing was done with 21 replicates for each concentration level. Based on the real-time stability results, the current data supports the shelf-life of Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Test Cartridge Kits (including the Test Cartridge and the Sample Collection tube) for up to 24 months at both 4°C and 30°C.
b. Transportation Stability Studies
The shipping study was conducted to evaluate the shipping stress to the Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Sample Collection tube and its endurance under extreme temperatures.
Before sampling: The Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Sample Collection tubes (containing no fecal samples) were stored at -10°C, 2–8°C, 25°C and 40°C for different time points (0, 3, 5 and 6 days). Tests were performed with 21 replicates of each hemoglobin concentration (0, 80, 100, 110, 120, 140 and 1000 ng/mL) at the end of each designed time point of the study. The study was conducted at one site with one lot of Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Test Cartridge Kit on a single analyzer. The results demonstrate that the Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Sample Collection tubes (before sampling) can be stable for five days under the shipping temperatures of -10°C to 40°C.
After sampling: The Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Sample Collection tubes were tested by 21 replicates of hemoglobin free fecal samples spiked with seven different concentrations of hemoglobin (0, 80, 100, 110, 120, 140 and 1000 ng/mL). After sampling, the Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Sample Collection tubes were stored at -10°C, 2–8°C, 25°C and 40°C for different time points (0, 3, 5 and 6 days). Tests were performed with 21 replicates of each hemoglobin concentration at the end of each designed time point of the study. The study was conducted at one site with one lot of Hemosure Accu-Reader A100 Test Cartridge Kit on a single analyzer. The results demonstrate that the Accu-Reader A100 Sample Collection tubes (after sampling) can be stable for five days under the shipping temperatures of -10°C to 40°C.
