Device Story
Is-CMV IgG Test System is an ELISA for detecting/semi-quantitating IgG antibodies to CMV in human serum. Partially purified CMV antigen is immobilized on microtiter wells; patient serum is added; if present, anti-CMV IgG binds to antigen. After washing, enzyme-labeled anti-human immunoglobulin conjugate is added, followed by substrate. Color intensity is measured photometrically, providing an indirect measure of specific antibody concentration. Used in clinical laboratories; performed manually or via MAGO Plus Automated EIA Processor. Results assist clinicians in assessing patient immune status and diagnosing CMV infection stages. Benefits include standardized, automated or manual assessment of CMV serology.
Clinical Evidence
Performance evaluated using 587 serum samples across three sites. Compared against other marketed EIA methods. Relative sensitivity ranged from 96.6% to 100%; relative specificity ranged from 87.8% to 100%. Overall agreement ranged from 97.0% to 99.0%. CDC serum panel testing showed 99% total agreement (100% positive/100% negative agreement). Precision studies (intra-assay and inter-assay) performed manually and on MAGO Plus processor. Linearity demonstrated across the reportable range.
Technological Characteristics
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Solid phase: microtiter wells coated with partially purified CMV antigen. Detection: enzyme-labeled anti-human immunoglobulin conjugate and substrate. Measurement: photometric color intensity. Operation: manual or automated (MAGO Plus EIA Processor).
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative and semi-quantitative detection of IgG antibodies to CMV in human serum. Used to assess immunological response, determine immune status (including females of child-bearing age), and aid in diagnosis of primary, reactivated, or reinfection with CMV.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Cytomegalovirus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to cytomegalovirus in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of diseases caused by cytomegaloviruses (principally cytomegalic inclusion disease) and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Cytomegalic inclusion disease is a generalized infection of infants and is caused by intrauterine or early postnatal infection with the virus. The disease may cause severe congenital abnormalities, such as microcephaly (abnormal smallness of the head), motor disability, and mental retardation. Cytomegalovirus infection has also been associated with acquired hemolytic anemia, acute and chronic hepatitis, and an infectious mononucleosis-like syndrome.

Device Description: The Is-CMV IgG Test System is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection and semi-quantitation of IgG to CMV antigen in human serum
Intended Use: The assay is intended for use in detecting IgG antibodies to CMV antigen in human serum. The results of the assay can be used as an aid in the assessment of the patient's immunological response to CMV and, when evaluating paired sera, as an aid in the diagnosis of primary infection, reactivated infection or reinfection.
#### Principle of the Procedure:
The Is-CMV IgG Test System is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect IgG to CMV in human serum. Partially purified CMV antigen is attached to a solid phase microtiter well. Diluted test sera are added to each well. If antibodies which recognize the CMV antigen are present in the patient sample they will bind to the antigen in the well. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound antibody. A'n enzyme labeled antihuman immunoglobulin (conjugate) is added to each test well. If antibody is present the enzyme-linked antibody will bind to it. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound conjugate. A substrate solution is then added to each well. If enzyme is present from the prior step, the reaction is stopped and the color intensity is measured photometrically producing an indirect measure of the specific antibody present in the patient sample.

## B. Correlation of Manual and MAGO Results
The Is-CMV IgG Test Kit has been developed for automated as well as manual use. To demonstrate the equivalence of the manual and MAGO Plus Procedures, the results of 160 serum samples tested in the comparison studies were plotted Forty-six highly reactive samples exceeded the reportable range and were excluded from this comparison. A scatergram and regression line of the results obtained with 95% confidence intervals is shown in figure 3.
Image /page/2/Figure/2 description: The image is a scatter plot titled "FIGURE 3: Manual vs MAGO Plus Correlation". The x-axis is labeled "MANUAL EU/ml" and ranges from 0 to 200. The y-axis is labeled "MAGO EU/ml" and ranges from 0 to 200. The plot shows a positive correlation between the two variables, with most of the data points clustered around a regression line. The slope of the regression line is 0.9415, the intercept is 4.6521, and the R-value is 0.9568.
# C. CDC Serum Panel Data
The following information was obtained wth the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) serum panel for CMV serology assays which was tested by the Is-CMV IgG Test Kit both manufacturer mated to mated Processor. The results are presented as a means to convey further information on the performance of this assay with a masked characterized serum patel. Results were submitted to the periodmands of this assume This does not imply an endorsement of the assay by the CDC.
The panel consists of 66% positive and 34% negative samples. The Diamedix Is-CMV IgG test demonstrated 99% (99%) of 100) total agreement with the CDC results obtained by Diamedix, there was 100% (66 of 66) agreement with the positive results using both the manual and automated methods and 100% (66) agreement with the negative specimens using both the manual and automated methods.
#### D. Linearity
------
Several strongly positive serum specimens were dilutions were assayed, in duplicate, in the Is-CMV IgG Test Kit both manually and using the MAGO Plus Automated Processor. Representative lines regession graphs and scatted both mannelly with 95% confidence intervals are presented in Figures 4 and 5 for one patient sample tested both manually and intel in contractives and presented in Figures 4 and 5 for one of linearity throughout the reportable range of the assay when samples are tested either manally or by MAGO Plus.
Image /page/2/Figure/8 description: The image contains two graphs, 'Figure 4: Manual Linearity' and 'Figure 5: MAGO Plus Linearity'. Both graphs show a linear relationship between dilution (x-axis) and EU/ml (y-axis). Figure 4 has a slope of 272.68, a y-intercept of 2.90, and an R-value of 0.9944, while Figure 5 has a slope of 302.82, a y-intercept of 5.59, and an R-value of 0.9927.
{3}------------------------------------------------
#### E. Semi-Quantitative Data
Serum pairs were obtained by preparing multiple two fold dilutions of several strongly positive sera. Ratios for dilutions representing a four-fold difference in antibody level were evaluated as a serum pair both manually and using the MAGO Plus. Overall, it was estimated that a 2.3- to 6.1 fold (mean 4.2-fold ) increase in Is-CMV IgG EU/ml values corrcsponded to a four-fold titer increase in CMV IgG antibody levels.
#### F. Cross Reactivity
Sera containing IgG antibodies to viruses potentially cross-reactive to CMV have been tested in the Is-CMV IgG Test Kit Forty-seven sera negative for antibodies to CMV in the Is-CMV IgG as well as in another marketed test but positive for one or more viruses were used. The data in the following table suggest that no cross-reactivity should be expected with the Is-CMV IgG Test Kit from these analytes.

### H. Expected Values
The prevalence of CMV antibodies in the normal population can vary deponding on a number of factors such as age, geographical location, socio-economic status, race and type of test used. Sera from 100 healthy South Florida donors (52 female and 48 male) were evaluated in the Is-CMV IgG test Kit. Of the 100 seathy South
Florida donors (52 female and 48 male) were evaluated in the Is-CMV were found to be positive, 29 were negative and 1 was equivocal for anti-CMV igG. The resulting provalence of 70% for this population is in general agreement with prevalence rates of 30% to 80% in US blood donors (2). Age distribution, geographic is and prevalence is provided in Table 1. Histograms demonstrating the distribution of EU/ml values are shown in Figures 1 and 2.

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
