The quantitative determination of thyrotropin (TSH) concentration in human serum by a microplate enzymeimmunoassay. Measurements of thyroid stimulating hormone produced by the anterior pituitary are used in the diagnosis of thyroid or pituitary disorders.
Device Story
Thyrotropin (TSH) ELISA is a microplate enzyme immunoassay (IEMA) for quantitative TSH measurement in human serum. Device utilizes two-site sandwich immunoassay technology; monoclonal biotinylated anti-TSH antibody and enzyme-labeled anti-TSH antibody form a soluble sandwich complex with native TSH antigen. Complex is deposited onto streptavidin-coated polystyrene wells via high-affinity streptavidin-biotin reaction. After incubation and separation (decantation/aspiration), enzyme activity is measured, which is directly proportional to TSH concentration. A dose-response curve is generated using known serum references to determine unknown concentrations. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results assist healthcare providers in diagnosing thyroid or pituitary disorders.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical comparison study using 170 specimens from hypothyroid, euthyroid, and hyperthyroid populations. Compared subject microplate IEMA method to reference ICMA method. Mean values: 4.54 µIU/ml (subject) vs 4.21 µIU/ml (reference). Correlation coefficient 0.995; linear regression y=0.47+0.968. Recovery of exogenous TSH averaged 98.1%. Linearity studies averaged 99.2%.
Technological Characteristics
Two-site sandwich enzyme immunoassay (IEMA). Components: monoclonal biotinylated anti-TSH antibody, enzyme-labeled anti-TSH antibody, streptavidin-coated polystyrene wells. Detection principle: enzyme activity proportional to antigen concentration. Standardized against international reference material.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative determination of TSH in human serum to aid in the diagnosis of thyroid or pituitary disorders in patients.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A thyroid stimulating hormone test system is a device intended to measure thyroid stimulating hormone, also known as thyrotrophin and thyrotrophic hormone, in serum and plasma. Measurements of thyroid stimulating hormone produced by the anterior pituitary are used in the diagnosis of thyroid or pituitary disorders.

Dear Sir:
Monobind Inc., registration number 2020726, plans to introduce into commercial distribution an enzymeimmunoassay (IEMA) kit for the determination of thyrotropin (TSH) In human serum.
The proprietary name is Thyrotropin (TSH) ELISA and the usual name is TSH IEMA. This device classification name is - thyroid-stimulating hormone test system - product code JLW (per 21 CRF section 862.1690).
This device is substantially equivalent to the Ciba Corning ACS 180 chemiluminescence (ICMA) test, which predicates the new device.
The contact individual for this submission is Dr. Frederick R. Jerome.
The Monobind ELISA method is based on two-site immunoassay (sandwich) technology utilizing the streptavidin-biotin reaction to effect separation. Upon mixing monoclonal biotinylated anti-TSH antibody, the enzyme-labeled anti-TSH antibody and a serum containing the native antigen (TSH), reaction results between the native antigen (TSH) and the antibodies, without competition or steric hindrance, to form a soluble sandwich complex. Simultaneously, the complex is deposited to the well through the high affinity reaction of streptavidin and biotinylated antibody. After incubation is complete, decantation or aspiration separates the bound fraction. The enzyme activity on the well is directly proportional to the native antigen (TSH) concentration. By utilizing several different serum references of known antigen values, a dose response curve can be generated from which the antigen concentration of an unknown can be ascertained.
The intended use of the device: The quantitative determination of therotropin (TSH) concentration in human serum by a microplate enzymelmmunoassay.
The technological characteristics of the new device compared to the predicate device are very similar. This includes the use of two-site immunoassay (sandwich) technology using monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies, and human serum prepared calibrators (standardized against the same international reference material). The main difference resides in the use of an enzyme tracer compared to chemiluminescence as well as magnetic particles versus streptavidin coated polystvrene wells.
Substantial equivalency was based on clinical comparison (linear regression), using 170 specimens from hypothyroid, euthyroid and hyperthyrold populations. The mean values for reference method (ICMA) and this method (microplate IEMA) are 4.21 ulU/mi and 4.54 µlU/mi respectively. The equation to a straight line (y= 0.47+ 0.968) and correlation coefficient (0.995) indicates good method agreement.
In addition recovery data demonstrated an average recovery of 98.1% when exogenous added thyrotropin was introduced into human serum specimens. Similarly, linearity studies showed an average 99.2% when specimens were diluted and compared to the dose response curve.
