Intended Use

The Albumin BCP assay is used for the quantitation of albumin in human serum.

Device Story

Albumin BCP is an in vitro diagnostic clinical chemistry assay for human serum. The assay utilizes bromcresol purple, which binds to albumin in the sample. The resulting complex is measured via absorbance at 600 nm; absorbance is directly proportional to albumin concentration. The device is intended for use by clinical laboratory professionals to assist in diagnosing and treating kidney and liver disease. Results are provided to healthcare providers to inform clinical decision-making regarding patient health status.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Method comparison study performed on the ALCYON Analyzer against the predicate (Hitachi 717) yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.9855, slope of 0.950, and Y-intercept of 0.198 g/dL. Precision studies (within-run, between-run, between-day) showed total %CV of 2.3% (Level 1) and 2.5% (Level 2). Linearity established up to 7.0 g/dL; limit of quantitation is 0.1 g/dL.

Technological Characteristics

In vitro clinical chemistry assay; bromcresol purple binding method; absorbance measured at 600 nm. Quantitative, linear up to 7.0 g/dL. Designed for use on clinical chemistry analyzers.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the quantitative determination of albumin in human serum to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of kidney and liver disease.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An albumin test system is a device intended to measure the albumin concentration in serum and plasma. Albumin measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases involving primarily the liver or kidneys.

This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR 807.92.

The assigned 510(k) number is: _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

#### Test Description:

Albumin BCP is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of albumin in human serum. The Albumin BCP assay is a clinical chemistry assay in which the albumin in the sample binds to bromcresol purple. The absorbance of the complex is measured at 600 nm and is directly proportional to the albumin concentration in the sample.

#### Substantial Equivalence:

The Albumin BCP assay is substantially equivalent to the Boehringer Mannheim® Albumin BCP Assay (K844426) on the Hitachi® 717 Analyzer.

Both assays vield similar Performance Characteristics.

{1}------------------------------------------------

Similarities to Boehringer Mannheim:

- Both assays are in vitro clinical chemistry methods.
- Both assays can be used for the quantitative determination of albumin. .
- Both assays yield similar clinical results. .

Differences to Boehringer Mannheim:

- There is a minor difference in the assay range. .
#### Intended Use:

The Albumin BCP assay is used for the quantitation of albumin in human serum.

#### Performance Characteristics:

Comparative performance studies were conducted using the ALCYON™ Analyzer. The Albumin BCP assay method comparison yielded acceptable correlation with the Boehringer Mannheim Albumin BCP assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer. The correlation coefficient = 0.9855, slope = 0.950, and Y-intercept = 0.198 g/dL. Precision studies were conducted using the Albumin BCP 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 2.3% and Level 2/Panel 112 is 2.5%. The Albumin BCP assay is linear up to 7.0 g/dL. The limit of quantititation (sensitivity) of the Albumin BCP assay is 0.1 g/dL. These data demonstrate that the performance of the Albumin BCP assay is substantially equivalent to the performance of the Boehringer Mannheim Albumin BCP assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer.

#### Conclusion:

The Albumin BCP assay is substantially equivalent to the Boehringer Mannheim Albumin BCP assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer as demonstrated by results obtained in the studies.
