Intended Use
Roche Diagnostics Precinorm® Universal and Precipath® Universal Control Sera is intended for quality control in the quantitative determination of substrates, electrolytes, lipids, enzymes, proteins, and drugs. The control is used for monitoring accuracy or precision for manual techniques and assays from Roche on automated clinical chemistry analyzers.
Device Story
Precinorm® Universal and Precipath® Universal Control Sera are lyophilized human serum-based quality control products. They contain constituent analytes at normal and pathological levels. Used in clinical laboratories by technicians or clinicians to monitor the accuracy and precision of manual and automated clinical chemistry assays. The product serves as a reference material; healthcare providers compare analyzer results against established control values to verify system performance and ensure reliable patient diagnostic data. Benefits include improved confidence in clinical chemistry test results and standardized quality assurance across laboratory workflows.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Lyophilized pooled human serum with added constituent analytes. Two-level control product. Stability: 2-8°C until expiration; reconstituted stability varies by temperature (2-8°C, 25°C, -20°C).
Indications for Use
Indicated for quality control monitoring of accuracy and precision in clinical chemistry assays (substrates, electrolytes, lipids, enzymes, proteins, drugs) performed via manual techniques or automated analyzers.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.

Dear Ms. Hamill:
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 (OS) 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.

Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770)488-7655.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
