(K973668) | Device Description: Dimension® Cardiac Troponin-I (TROP) Calibrator is a five level frozen product with target concentrations of 0, 2, 9, 25, and 55 ng/mL containing native human troponin complex in a buffered bovine protein matrix. The kit consists of five vials; two at each level. Intended Use: TROP Calibrator is intended to be used to calibrate the TROP Method for the Dimension® RxL clinical chemistry system with the heterogeneous immunoassay module. #### Comparison to Predicate Device: | Dimension® RxL TROP Calibrator (Modified) | Dimension® RxL TROP Calibrator | | |-------------------------------------------|---------------------------------|-------------------------| | Intended Use | Calibrator | Calibrator | | Analyte | Native human troponin-I complex | Cardiac troponin-I | | Matrix | Buffered bovine protein | Buffered bovine protein | | Form | Frozen | Frozen | | Volume | 3.0 mL per vial | 2.0 mL per vial | | Values | Assigned | Assigned | | Levels | 5 levels | 5 levels | Comments on Substantial Equivalence: Modified Dimension® RxL Cardiac Troponin I Calibrator is equivalent to the Dimension® RxL Cardiac Troponin-I Calibrator currently {1}------------------------------------------------ marketed. Both products are manufactured using a buffered bovine protein matrix but differ in analyte source. Both products are intended to be used as calibrators for the Dimension® RxL Cardiac Troponin-I assay. Conclusion: The modified Dimension® RxL Cardiac Troponin I Calibrator is substantially equivalent to the Dimension® RxL Cardiac Troponin-I Calibrator currently marketed by Dade Behring based on the comparison summarized above.
