The quantitative determination of total triiodothyronine concentration in human serum or plasma by a microplate enzymelmmunoassay.
Device Story
Total Triiodothyronine (T3) Microplate EIA is an enzyme immunoassay for measuring T3 levels in human serum or plasma. The device uses anti-T3 antibodies immobilized on plastic microtiter plate wells. During testing, patient samples, calibrators, or controls are added alongside an enzyme-T3 conjugate. A competition reaction occurs between native T3 in the sample and the enzyme-T3 conjugate for limited antibody binding sites. After incubation, unreacted material is decanted. The remaining enzyme activity is quantified by adding a substrate that produces a color change, measured via spectrophotometry. The test is performed in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results assist clinicians in diagnosing and managing thyroid disorders, including hyperthyroidism.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical comparison performed using 120 specimens from hypothyroid, euthyroid, and hyperthyroid populations. Comparison between reference coated tube RIA and subject microplate EIA showed mean values of 168 and 162, respectively. Linear regression yielded y=3.8+0.947 with a correlation coefficient of 0.987. Recovery data showed 102.1% average recovery of exogenous T3; linearity studies showed 95.7% average recovery.
Technological Characteristics
Microplate-based enzyme immunoassay. Components include anti-T3 antibody immobilized on plastic microtiter wells and enzyme-T3 conjugate. Detection via colorimetric substrate reaction. Non-radiolabeled format.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative determination of total triiodothyronine (T3) concentration in human serum or plasma to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid diseases, such as hyperthyroidism.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A total triiodothyronine test system is a device intended to measure the hormone triiodothyronine in serum and plasma. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid diseases such as hyperthyroidism.

510(k) Summary
Dear Sir:
Monobind Inc. , registration number 2020726, plans to introduce into commercial distribution an enzymelmmunoassay (EIA) kit for the determination of total trilodothyronine (T3) in human serum or plasma.
The proprietary name is Total Trilodothyronine (T3) Microplate EIA and the usual name Is T3 EIA. This device classification name is - enzyme immunoassay, non-radiolabeled, total trilodothyronine - product code CPD (per 21 CRF section 862.1710).
This device is substantially equivalent to the Monobind total trilodothyronine (T3) coated tube radioimmunoassay (RIA), which predicates the new device.
The contact individual for this submission is Dr. Frederick R. Jerome.
The Monobind microplate ElA utilizes anti-trilodothyronine antibody immobilized on the surface of plastic wells of a microtiterplate. Specimens, callbrators or controls are then added followed by the enzyme-T3 conjugate. A competition reaction results between the native trilodothyronine in the sample and the added enzyme-T3 conjugate for a limited number of antibody combining sites. After the completion of the Incubation period, the enzyme-T3 conjugate is separated from unreacted material by decantation. The activity of the enzyme on the well is quantitated by reaction with suitable substrate to produce color.
The Intended use of the device: The quantitative determination of total triiodothyronine concentration in human serum or plasma by a microplate enzymelmmunoassay.
The technological characteristics of the new device compared to the predicate device are essentially identical. This includes the use of the same anti-trilodothyronine antibody (coated on a plastic surface), identically prepared callbrators, sample size and the composition of the tracer buffer. The sole difference resides in the use of an enzyme tracer compared to a radioisotope.
Substantial equivalency was based on clinical comparison (linear regression), using 120 specimens from hypothyroid, euthyroid and hyperthyroid populations. The mean values for reference method (coated tube RIA) and this method (microplate EIA) are 168 and 162 respectively. The equation to a straight line (y= 3.8 + 0.947) and correlation coefficient (0.987) Indicates good method agreement.
In addition recovery data demonstrated an average recovery of 102.1% when exogenous added trilodothyronine was introduced into human serum specimens. Similarly, linearity studies showed an average 95.7% when a specimens were diffuted and compared to the dose response curve.
