Device Facts

• Record ID: K973072
• Device Name: WAKO NEFA LINEARITY SET
• Applicant: Wako Chemicals USA, Inc.
• Product Code: JJX · Clinical Chemistry
• Decision Date: Sep 12, 1997
• Decision: SESE
• Submission Type: Traditional
• Regulation: 21 CFR 862.1660
• Device Class: Class 1

Indications for Use

The Wako NEFA Linearity set is to be used with the wako NEFAC fest kit for the estimation of the linearity limits of the reagent/instrument system for the NEFA analyte.

Device Story

Wako NEFA Linearity set functions as a calibration verification or linearity assessment tool for the Wako NEFA test kit. It is used in clinical laboratory settings by laboratory technicians to determine the upper and lower limits of the analytical measurement range for NEFA (Non-Esterified Fatty Acids) testing. By processing the linearity set through the reagent/instrument system, the user verifies that the system provides accurate, linear results across the intended clinical range. This ensures the reliability of patient test results, allowing clinicians to make informed decisions regarding lipid metabolism and related metabolic conditions.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

In vitro diagnostic linearity set for NEFA analyte. Designed for use with Wako NEFA test kit. Class I device (Product Code: JJX).

Indications for Use

Indicated for use with the Wako NEFA test kit to estimate the linearity limits of the reagent/instrument system for the NEFA analyte.

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. Mallory:

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 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 Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਰ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) 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 Reqister. 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 [phone].

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 [phone]. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at [phone]. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to Other qeneral information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number [phone] or [phone] or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html".
