The amylase assay is used for the quantitation of amylase in human serum, plasma, or urine.
Device Story
The Amylase assay is an in vitro diagnostic clinical chemistry test used to measure amylase activity in human serum, plasma, or urine samples. The assay utilizes a kinetic enzymatic method where amylase in the sample hydrolyzes 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl-a-D-maltotrioside (CNPG3) into 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (CPNP) and other products. The rate of CPNP formation is measured via increased absorbance at 405 nm, which is directly proportional to the amylase activity in the sample. The assay is performed on the ALCYON Analyzer. Healthcare providers use the quantitative results to assist in the diagnosis and clinical management of pancreatitis. The device provides objective biochemical data to support clinical decision-making regarding pancreatic health.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Method comparison studies between the Amylase assay on the ALCYON Analyzer and the Roche Cobas Mira Plus system showed high correlation (serum: r=0.9791, slope=1.126, y-intercept=-18.427 U/L; urine: r=0.9702, slope=0.977, y-intercept=0.447 U/L). Precision studies (within-run, between-run, between-day) reported total %CVs ranging from 3.3% to 10.6% depending on sample type and control level. The assay is linear up to 2,500 U/L with a limit of quantitation of 4.268 U/L.
Technological Characteristics
In vitro diagnostic clinical chemistry assay. Principle: Kinetic enzymatic hydrolysis of CNPG3 substrate measured by absorbance at 405 nm. Form factor: Reagent-based assay for use on the ALCYON Analyzer. No software algorithm or connectivity details provided.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative determination of amylase in human serum, plasma, or urine to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatitis.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An amylase test system is a device intended to measure the activity of the enzyme amylase in serum and urine. Amylase measurements are used primarily for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas).

#### Test Description:
Amylase is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of amylase in serum, plasma, or urine. The Amylase assay is a clinical chemistry assay. The amylase in the sample hydrolyzes the 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl-a-D-maltotrioside (CNPG3) to release 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (CPNP) and form 2-chloro-4-nitrophenylα-D-maltoside (CNPG2), maltotriose (G3), and glucose (G). The rate of formation of the 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol is measured as an increase in the absorbance at 405 nm and is directly proportional to the activity of amylase present in the sample.

#### Substantial Equivalence:
The Amylase assay is substantially equivalent to the Roche® Cobas Mira® Plus Automated Chemistry System Amylase assay (K903309) for serum, plasma, or urine applications.
These assavs vield similar Performance Characteristics.
Similarities to Roche:
- Both assays are in vitro clinical chemistry methods. .
- Both assays can be used for the quantitative determination of amylase in serum . or urine.
- Both assays yield similar clinical results. .
Differences to Roche:
- The Roche Amylase assay on the Cobas Mira Plus Automated System is not . intended for use with heparinized plasma.
#### Intended Use:
The amylase assay is used for the quantitation of amylase in human serum, plasma, or urine.
#### Performance Characteristics:
Comparative performance studies were conducted using the ALCYON™ Analyzer. The Amylase assay method comparison vielded acceptable correlation with the Roche Cobas Mira Plus Automated Chemistry System Amylase assay for the serum and urine applications. For serum applications, the correlation coefficient = 0.9791. slope = 1.126, and Y-intercept = - 18.427 U/L. For urine applications, the correlation coefficient = 0.9702, slope = 0.977, and Y-intercept = 0.447 U/L. Precision studies were conducted using the Amylase assay. Within-run, between-run, and between-day studies were performed using two levels of control material. The total %CV for Level 1/Panel 111 is 3.3% and Level 2/Panel 112 is 3.7% for serum applications, and 10.6% for Level 1/Panel 131, and 4.4% for Level 2/Panel 132 for urine applications. The

Amylase assay is linear up to 2,500 U/L. The limit of quantititation (sensitivity) of the Amylase assay is 4.268 U/L. These data demonstrate that the performance of the Amylase assay is substantially equivalent to the performance of the Roche Cobas Mira Plus Automated Chemistry System Amylase assay for the serum and urine applications.
### Conclusion:
The Amylase assay is substantially equivalent to the Roche Cobas Mira Plus Automated Chemistry System Amylase assay as demonstrated by results obtained in the studies.
