The Sentinel Clin Chem Cal is a device intended for medical purposes for use in pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase assays to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of values in the measurement of pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase in human serum and plasma. For Prescription Use Only
Device Story
Sentinel Clin Chem Cal is a multi-analyte calibrator consisting of pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase in a human serum matrix. It is used in clinical chemistry laboratories to establish reference points for the measurement of these analytes in human serum and plasma. The device is provided in vials that require reconstitution with distilled water. Value assignment is performed by assaying the calibrator on Hitachi 717 and Abbott ARCHITECT c8000 instruments, with the final assigned value being the mean of the averages from both systems. Healthcare providers use the calibrated assay results to determine patient analyte levels, aiding in clinical decision-making related to pancreatic and cholinesterase function. The calibrator ensures the accuracy and effectiveness of clinical chemistry measurements.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Stability was validated through real-time studies confirming 24-month shelf life and 2-day stability at 2-8°C post-reconstitution. Value assignment was performed using commercially marketed analyzers with internal control monitoring.
Technological Characteristics
Multi-analyte calibrator in human serum matrix. Analytes: pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase. Traceability: IFCC EPS/37°C for amylase (p-Nitrophenol standard) and DGKC Butyrylthiocholine/37°C for cholinesterase (Hexacyano-ferrate (III) standard). Form factor: lyophilized powder in vials, reconstituted with distilled water. Storage: -20°C for long-term, 2-8°C for short-term after reconstitution.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a calibrator in pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase assays for human serum and plasma samples.
Regulatory Classification

### Test Description:
The Sentinel Sentinel Clin Chem Cal is a device intended for medical purposes for use in pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase assays to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of values in the measurement of pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase in human serum and plasma.
#### Intended Use:
Sentinel Clin Chem Cal must be used only for the calibration of clinical chemistry tests.
{1}------------------------------------------------
#### Description of the Calibrator Material:
Sentinel Clin Chem Cal contains the analytes in human serum matrix. The analytes consist of pancreatic amylase and cholinesterase.
#### Assigned Values and Value Assignment Process:
Four vials of calibrator are reconstituted by weight (acceptability 2.970-3.030 g) following the Instruction for Use.
To evaluate vial variability, Pancreatic Amylase is assayed in three replicates on each vial and %CV is calculated for each vial. If %CV is equal to or greater than 4.5%, the vial is discarded from the analysis. At least 2 vials of calibrator can be used. If more than 3 vials are discarded, another set of four calibrator must be used.
The pool of all accepted vials is aliquoted in small volumes and stored at -20 ℃.
The Pancreatic Amylase and Cholinesterase assay are calibrated against the previous calibrator lot, stored at 2-8 ℃ and freshly reconstituted. During each testing run, two levels (normal and abnormal) of control materials are assayed to ensure the effectiveness of the measurements.
For three consecutive days (three runs), three replicates of Pancreatic Amylase and Cholinesterase are assayed on Hitachi 717. The average of all replicates is calculated (X1).
Pancreatic Amylase and Cholinesterase are also assayed on Abbott ARCHITECT® c8000 . Five vials of freshly reconstituted by weight vials are assayed in five replicates on c8000. The average of all replicates is calculated (X2).
The assigned value (Xm) is the mean of the two average: Xm=(X1+X2)/2

#### 7. Calibrator Shelf-life Stability
The calibrator shelf-life stability was determined by the recovery method on one lots of Sentinel Clin Chem Cal. One lot of test calibrator were stored at 4℃. At the time of analysis was reconstituted with distilled water. Percent recovery was calculated for each calibrator level by dividing the result of the test calibrator at

time zero by the result of control calibrators at every testing point. At each testing point, fresh reagent, control calibrators, and test calibrators were analyzed. Calibrators were tested at multiple test points through a minimum of 30 months. Target recovery was 95% to 105% for the test calibrators as compared to the Time zero. Results are found in Table 1.
The results show the calibrators are stable for up to 33 months. The resulting claim is 24 months from date of manufacture.
Since the calibrator is purchased from Roche which is the Predicate Device for ビ the Sentinel Clin Chem Cal, Shelf life of the calibrator is the same as the Predicate Device.
#### 8. Calibrator After Reconstitution Stability
After Reconstitution stability was assessed on three lots of calibrator: one expired from 13 months (expiry date + 13 months), one expired from 8 months (expiry date + 8 months) and one still in validity.
The calibrator after reconstitution stability was determined by the recovery method. Percent recovery was calculated for each calibrator analyte by dividing the results of the reconstituted vial stored at 2 -- 8 ℃ after 2 days, and at -20 ℃ after 14 days by the results of a freshly reconstituted vial of the same lot. At each test point fresh reagents were used.
Acceptance criteria is 100 ± 7%.
Results are found in Table 2 and Table 3.
Stability of reconstituted material: 2 days at 2 to 8 °C or 14 days at -20 °C if aliquoted in small volumes.
