Elecsys® PreciControl Universal is used for quality control of the Elecsys® immunoassays on the Elecsys® immunoassay systems. For Prescription Use Only
Device Story
Elecsys® PreciControl Universal is a lyophilized quality control product consisting of human serum matrix spiked with various antigens (AFP, Cortisol, DHEAS, Estradiol, Ferritin, Folate, FSH, L-Thyroxin, hCG, IgE, Insulin, LH, Progesterone, Prolactin, Testosterone, SHBG, T3, TSH, Vitamin B12). It is used by laboratory professionals to monitor the performance and accuracy of Elecsys® immunoassay systems. The product requires reconstitution with distilled water before use. By comparing the measured values of the control against established target ranges, clinicians verify the reliability of patient sample testing. This process ensures the analytical validity of immunoassay results, supporting accurate clinical decision-making and patient diagnosis.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. The device was evaluated through bench testing for value assignment and stability characteristics.
Technological Characteristics
Lyophilized human serum matrix with added synthetic and human-derived antigens. Requires reconstitution with 3.0 mL distilled water. Stability varies by analyte and storage condition (refrigerated, frozen, or on-analyzer).
Indications for Use
Indicated for quality control of Elecsys® immunoassays on Elecsys® immunoassay systems. Intended for professional use in clinical laboratory settings.
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.

c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
Roche Diagnostics maintains a set of master calibrators for each assay that have values assigned that are traceable to the various method "gold standards." Elecsys® PreciControl products are assayed and compared to these reference preparations and target values and ranges are assigned.
Values are assigned using a total of 12 analyzers except for hCG; hCG values were assigned using 8 analyzers. Two independent series of analyses are performed on each instrument for each analyte. Each sample is tested in duplicate. The target value is calculated as the median of the determined values.
Four studies were performed on reconstituted material to verify the stability claims.
Elecsys PreciControl Universal material and reference material are evaluated in triplicate. The Elecsys PreciControl Universal material is stressed. The reference material is an unstressed set of Elecsys PreciControl Universal. One

bottle of Elecsys PreciControl Universal material was used per each stability testing. Each result is reported as the average of three samples. The acceptance criterion is recovery of 90%-110% of the concentration based on unstressed material. The results are presented below.
