Intended Use

The Zeus Scientific, Inc. ANCA Screen ELISA test system is intended for the qualitative detection of IgGclass antibody to myeloperoxidase and/or proteinase-3 in human serum. The test system is intended to be used as an automated or manual aid in the diagnosis of various autoimmune vasculitic disorders characterized by elevated levels of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) to MPO and/or PR-3 ANCA may be associated with autoimmune disorders such as Wegener's Granulamotosis, Idiopathic Crescentic Glomerulonephritis, Microscopic Polyarteritis, and Pulmonary Renal Syndrome. This test is for in vitro diagnostic use.

Device Story

The Aptus (automated) Application of the ANCA Screen ELISA test system is an in vitro diagnostic device designed to detect IgG antibodies against MPO and PR-3 in human serum. The system functions as an automated or manual aid for clinicians in diagnosing autoimmune vasculitic disorders. By identifying elevated ANCA levels, the device assists in the clinical assessment of conditions like Wegener's Granulomatosis and Microscopic Polyarteritis. The device processes serum samples using ELISA technology; results are interpreted by healthcare providers to support clinical decision-making regarding autoimmune disease management. It is intended for professional use in clinical laboratory settings.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided in the document; substantial equivalence is based on the device's intended use and technological characteristics.

Technological Characteristics

ELISA-based test system for qualitative detection of IgG antibodies. Supports both manual and automated processing. Designed for in vitro diagnostic use in clinical laboratory environments.

Indications for Use

Indicated for qualitative detection of IgG-class antibodies to myeloperoxidase (MPO) and/or proteinase-3 (PR-3) in human serum. Used as an aid in diagnosing autoimmune vasculitic disorders, including Wegener's Granulomatosis, Idiopathic Crescentic Glomerulonephritis, Microscopic Polyarteritis, and Pulmonary Renal Syndrome. For in vitro diagnostic use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A multiple autoantibodies immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues) in serum and other body fluids. Measurement of multiple autoantibodies aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders (disease produced when the body's own tissues are injured by autoantibodies).
