Intended Use
MB/BacT Blood Culture Bottles in combination with the MB/BacT Enrichment Fluid are specifically designed for the cultivation of Mycobacterium sp. commonly isolated from blood when used in conjunction with the MB/BacT Mycobacterial Detection System.
Device Story
MB/BacT Blood Culture Bottle is an in-vitro diagnostic device for cultivating and detecting Mycobacterium species in blood. The system utilizes a colorimetric sensor to monitor CO2 production resulting from microbial metabolism within the culture media; reflectance values are measured to detect growth. The device consists of a culture bottle and enrichment fluid. It is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. By providing a non-radiometric alternative to traditional methods, it facilitates the identification of mycobacterial infections, aiding clinicians in diagnosis and treatment decisions.
Clinical Evidence
Two clinical studies compared the MB/BacT Blood Culture Bottle to the BACTEC 13A using 238 paired blood samples (5 ml each). Results showed 55 organisms isolated by both systems, 9 isolated by MB/BacT only, and 2 isolated by BACTEC 13A only. Non-clinical testing evaluated 20 mycobacterial isolates across 10 species at two inoculum levels (1x10^1 and 1x10^2 CFU) under non-shaking conditions, demonstrating favorable growth performance.
Technological Characteristics
In-vitro diagnostic microbial growth monitor. Uses colorimetric sensor technology to measure CO2 production via reflectance values. Components include culture bottle and enrichment fluid. Storage requirements: 15°C-30°C for bottles, 2°C-8°C for enrichment fluid. Non-radiometric detection principle.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the cultivation and detection of Mycobacterium species from blood samples in patients suspected of mycobacterial infection.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A microbial growth monitor is a device intended for medical purposes that measures the concentration of bacteria suspended in a liquid medium by measuring changes in light scattering properties, optical density, electrical impedance, or by making direct bacterial counts. The device aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms.

## 510(k) Premarket Notification Organon Teknika Corporation MB/BacT™ Blood Culture Bottle
### A brief discussion of the nonclinical tests submitted, referenced, or relied on in the (b)1) premarket notification submission for a determination of substantial equivalency.
Testing was performed to establish the performance characteristics of the new device including:
A total of twenty mycobacterial isolates were tested representing ten different species. All isolates were evaluated in non-shaking conditions for two theoretical levels of inocula, 1 x 102 and 1 x 101 CFU, respectively. Overall, favorable growth performance was achieved with the cultures.
#### A brief discussion of the clinical tests submitted, referenced, or relied on in the (b)(2) premarket notification submission for a determination of substantial equivalency.
Two clinical studies were carried out with a total of 238 paired bottles. Blood was inoculated in even volumes of 5 mls. into each bottle pair. The studies compared growth of Mycobacteria sp. from blood between the MB/BacT Blood Culture Bottles and the BacTec 13A Culture Bottle. Out of the 238 paired bottles, 55 organisms were isolated by both bottles. 9 organisms were isolated by MB/BacT bottles only and 2 organisms were isolated by BacTec 13A bottles only.
### The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical and clinical tests that demonstrate that (b)3) the device is as safe, as effective, and performed as well or better than the legally marketed device identified in (a)(3).
Both the MB/BacT Blood Culture Bottle and the predicate device, the BacTec 13A are equivalent in the following respects:
- They have the same intended use: the recovery and detection of Mycobacteria in 1. blood.
- 2. They are both in-vitro diagnostic test systems which are based on microbial growth in media.
- Organon Teknika's MB/BacT Blood Culture Bottle yield test results, both in clinical 3. studies and in-house studies, comparable to that seen with the predicate device the BacTec 13A Blood Culture Bottle.

Dear Ms. Rivas:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
