Device Class
Class 1
Indications for Use
Quest Diagnostics Serum Chemistry Control is intended for use as a quality control serum to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures for the analytes listed in the package insert.
Device Story
Quest Diagnostics Serum Chemistry Control is a multi-analyte quality control material prepared from human serum supplemented with purified biochemical materials, chemicals, preservatives, and stabilizers. Provided in three levels, it serves as a reference to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures for a broad panel of general chemistry analytes, including enzymes, lipids, electrolytes, and metabolites. The device is intended for use in clinical laboratories using the Olympus AU5400 instrument. Healthcare providers use the control to verify the performance of their testing systems; results falling within established lot-specific ranges indicate that the laboratory's testing procedures are operating within acceptable precision limits. The product is handled as potentially infectious human-source material.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench-top stability studies confirming open-vial stability (30 days at 2-8°C), closed-vial alternate storage (6 months at -10 to -20°C), and shelf life (2 years at -20 to -70°C).
Technological Characteristics
Human serum-based control material; liquid form; contains stabilizers and preservatives. Analyte list includes enzymes, lipids, electrolytes, and proteins. Storage requirements: -20°C to -70°C (shelf), -10°C to -20°C (alternate).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a quality control serum to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures for specified analytes 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.

I. Device Description:
Quest Diagnostics Serum Chemistry Controls are provided as three levels of control materials. They are prepared from human serum to which purified biochemical materials (tissue extracts of human and animal origin), chemicals, preservatives and stabilizers have been added.
Each serum/plasma donor unit used in the manufacture of this product has been tested by FDA accepted methods and found non-reactive for the presence of HBsAg and antibody to HIV-1/2, HCV and HIV-1 Ag. While these methods are highly accurate, they do not guarantee that all infected units will be detected. Because no known test method can offer complete assurance the hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or other infectious agents are absent, all products containing human source material should be considered potentially infectious and handled with the same precautions used with patient specimens.
The analyte constituents are as follows:
- Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT)

3. Comparison with predicate:
{2}
Quest Diagnostics Serum Chemistry Control claims substantial equivalence to the Quest Diagnostics Serum Chemistry Control currently in commercial distribution. The new Quest Diagnostics Serum Chemistry Control contains the claims for the same analytes as the predicate device, with the addition of new claims for LDL-cholesterol. The predicate claimed ranges for analytes tested on both the Olympus AU5200 and AU5400. This device claims ranges for analytes tested on the Olympus AU5400 only.
K. Standard/Guidance Document Referenced (if applicable):
None were reference.
L. Test Principle:
Not Applicable
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Not Applicable
b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Not Applicable
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
No traceability was provided.
The ranges were established as follows, limits for mean values (at least 20 replicates) +/- 3SDs of the mean or 25% of allowable total error (ATE). The mean values printed in the package were derived from replicate measurements from various Quest Laboratories using the Olympus AU5400 and are lot specific. The labeling indicates that individual laboratory means should fall within the corresponding acceptable range; however, laboratory means may vary from the listed values during the life of the control material. Variations over time and between laboratories may be caused by differences in laboratory technique, instrumentation and reagents, or by manufacturer test method modifications. The sponsor recommends in the labeling that each laboratory establish its own means and acceptable ranges and use those provided in the labeling only as guides.
Stability studies have been performed to determine the open vial stability and shelf life for the Quest Diagnostics Serum Chemistry Control. Product claims are as follows: open vial: 30 days when stored tightly capped at 2-8°C; alternate Stability (Closed vial): 6 months when stored at -10 to -20°C; and shelf Life: Two years when stored at -20 to -70°C.
Real time studies will be ongoing to support the shelf life of this product. All supporting data is retained on file at Bio-Rad Laboratories.
