Intended Use

Microalbuminurea has been shown to predict the development of clinically significant nephropathy in diabetic patients. This Urinary Microalbumin Assay Kit is an in vitro immunoturbidimetric test for the quantitative determination of the native, immunoreactive albumin present in human urine.

Device Story

EnZIP Immunoturbidimetric Urinary Microalbumin Kit is an in vitro diagnostic assay. It measures albumin levels in human urine samples using immunoturbidimetric technology. The device is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results assist clinicians in assessing the risk of nephropathy in diabetic patients. The assay provides quantitative data, enabling monitoring of microalbuminuria, which serves as a predictive marker for renal complications.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided in the document; regulatory clearance based on 510(k) substantial equivalence determination.

Technological Characteristics

Immunoturbidimetric assay for quantitative albumin determination in urine. In vitro diagnostic device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the quantitative determination of native, immunoreactive albumin in human urine to predict the development of clinically significant nephropathy in diabetic patients.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A urinary protein or albumin (nonquantitative) test system is a device intended to identify proteins or albumin in urine. Identification of urinary protein or albumin (nonquantitative) is used in the diagnosis and treatment of disease conditions such as renal or heart diseases or thyroid disorders, which are characterized by proteinuria or albuminuria.
