Device Story
Photometric assays for clinical chemistry analysis; reagents react with patient samples (serum, plasma, urine) to produce colored complexes or enzymatic rate changes; measured via spectrophotometry at 405 nm or 535 nm on BioSystems BA400 analyzers. Amylase assays use enzymatic hydrolysis (CNP-G3 or 4-nitrophenyl-maltoheptaoside-ethylidene); pancreatic amylase assay uses monoclonal antibodies to inhibit salivary isoenzyme. Bilirubin assays use 3,5-dichlorophenyl diazonium salt reaction. Used in clinical laboratories by trained personnel; results aid physicians in diagnosing pancreatitis, liver, and metabolic disorders.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Precision evaluated per CLSI EP05-A3 (n=80 per level). Linearity evaluated per CLSI EP06-A. Detection limits (LoB, LoD, LoQ) evaluated per CLSI EP17-A2. Analytical specificity/interference evaluated per CLSI EP07-A2. Method comparison against predicate devices performed on BA400 analyzer showing high correlation (R > 0.99). No clinical studies performed.

# L. Test Principle:
The alpha-AMYLASE DIRECT reagent is a photometric assay in which the $\alpha$ -amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl-malto-trioside (CNPG3) to 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (CNP). The catalytic concentration is determined from the rate of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol formation, measured at $405~\mathrm{nm}$ .
{5}
The alpha-AMYLASE EPS reagent is a photometric assay in which the $\alpha$ -amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl-maltoheptaoside-ethylidene to smaller oligosaccharides which are hydrolyzed by $\alpha$ -glucosidase liberating 4-nitrophenol. The catalytic concentration is determined from the rate of 4-nitrophenol formation, measured at $405~\mathrm{nm}$ .
The alpha-AMYLASE PANCREATIC reagent is a photometric assay in which pancreatic $\alpha$ -amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl-maltoheptaoside-ethylidene to smaller oligosaccharides which are hydrolyzed by $\alpha$ -glucosidase liberating 4-nitrophenol. The catalytic concentration is determined from the rate of 4-nitrophenol formation, measured at $405~\mathrm{nm}$ . Specific antibodies inhibit the salivary isoenzyme and thus allow the measurement of pancreatic $\alpha$ -amylase.
The BILIRUBIN DIRECT reagent is a photometric assay in which the direct bilirubin in the sample reacts with 3,5-dichlorophenyl diazonium salt forming a colored complex that can be measured by spectrophotometry at $535~\mathrm{nm}$ .
The BILIRUBIN TOTAL reagent is a photometric assay in which both the direct and indirect bilirubin in the sample reacts with 3,5-dichlorophenyl diazonium salt in the presence of cetrimide forming a colored complex that can be measured by spectrophotometry at $535~\mathrm{nm}$ .

d. Detection limit:
Detection capabilities studies for each analyte were evaluated based upon the CLSI EP17-A2 guideline.
Limit of blank (LoB) studies were performed by testing 5 blank samples in replicates of 4 over 3 days, on two lots for a total of 120 observations. LoB was defined as the highest result that can reasonably be expected from a blank sample for a given error probability with $\alpha = 0.05$ .
Limit of detection (LoD) studies were performed by testing 5 pool of human serum or urine with analyte concentrations close to expected detection limit for each analyte. Samples were tested in replicates of 4 over 3 days, on two lots for a total of 120 observations. The LoD was estimated based on a probability of error of $5\%$ ( $\beta = 0.05$ ).
Limit of quantitation (LoQ) studies were performed using 4 to 5 pools of human serum or urine with analytes concentrations closed to the expected LoQ of the corresponding assay. Samples were tested in replicates of 4 over 3 days, on two lots for a total of 120 observations. The sponsor defines LoQ as the lowest concentration of a measurand with an imprecision $\leq 10\%$ .
The results of the detection limit studies are presented in the table below:
| Assays | Matrix | LoB | LoD | LoQ | Claimed Range |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| alpha-AMYLASE DIRECT (U/L) | Serum | 0.50 | 1.64 | 8.18 | 8.18 - 1300 |

| BILIRUBIN TOTAL (mg/dL) | Serum | 0.14 | 0.21 | 0.32 | 0.32 - 38.00 |
e. Analytical specificity:
Interference studies were performed in accordance with the CLSI EP07-A2 guideline. For alpha-AMYLASE DIRECT, alpha-AMYLASE EPS, alpha-AMYLASE PANCREATIC, specimens consist on human serum and urine representing low and high concentrations of the analyte, with and without added increasing concentration of the substance tested for interference. Interference studies for BILIRUBIN TOTAL and BILIRUBIN DIRECT were conducted using serum samples. Samples were spiked
{9}
with increasing concentrations of the potential interferents and analyzed in duplicate. Interference was calculated as: (b-a)/a, where a and b are the concentration of measurand found without (a) and with (b) interferent. The sponsor states that interference is considered to be non-significant if the difference between the samples with and without interferent are within $10\%$ .
The results of the interference studies are summarized in the table below.

*Concentrations tested based on the results reported by the predicate devices.
Method comparison data supports that serum and lithium heparin plasma are acceptable samples types for the BILIRUBIN DIRECT assay. Studies also support that serum and $\mathrm{K}_3$ EDTA plasma samples are acceptable sample types for the
{11}
BILIRUBIN TOTAL assay. The alpha-AMYLASE DIRECT, alpha-AMYLASE EPS, alpha-AMYLASE PANCREATIC assays can be used with serum, lithium heparin plasma and urine specimens.
