## Indications for Use

The Biophen plasma calibrator is used as a calibrator in the assay for the Antithrombin III & Protein C. It can be also used as normal human plasma control. The Biophen Plasma Calibrator is tested for the absence of Lupus Anticoagulant and can be used for this investigation.

## Device Story

Biophen Plasma Calibrator, Normal Control Plasma, and Abnormal Control Plasma are lyophilized, citrated human plasma products. Used as calibrators and quality control materials in clinical coagulation laboratories. Reconstituted with distilled water before use. Analyzed via mechanical or photo-optical coagulation instrumentation. Provides reference values for ATIII, Protein C, and Lupus Anticoagulant assays. Ensures accuracy and precision of coagulation testing by providing standardized control points for clinical decision-making regarding hemostasis and thrombosis risk.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Device performance is validated through established coagulation assay parameters (ATIII, Protein C, Lupus Anticoagulant) and APC resistance ratios (≥2.00 for Normal Control).

## Technological Characteristics

Lyophilized citrated normal human pooled plasma (>75%). Additives: Hepes (<10 mg), Glycine (<25 mg), Ciprofloxacin (<0.001%). Reconstituted with 1 ml distilled water. Form factor: 12 vials. No electronic or software components.

## Regulatory Identification

A multipurpose system for in vitro coagulation studies is a device consisting of one automated or semiautomated instrument and its associated reagents and controls. The system is used to perform a series of coagulation studies and coagulation factor assays.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A control intended for use with a multipurpose system for in vitro coagulation studies is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 864.9.

## Predicate Devices

- Plasma Control N ([K001256](/device/K001256.md))
- Lyphochek Hemostasis Control ([K020878](/device/K020878.md))

I. Device Description:

Biophen Plasma Calibrator reagent is composed of citrated normal human plasma, lyophilized in the presence of additives and preservatives. Each kit contains 12 vials of lyophilized reagent to be reconstituted with 1 ml distilled water. The concentration of the various coagulation factors is determined from the international standard.

The Biophen Normal and Abnormal Control Plasmas are lyophilized control material prepared from pooled plasma from selected health donors. Each control is calibrated for each parameter against a normal citrated human plasma pool and against

international standard when available. ATIII and Protein C is confirmed against SSC/ISTH Secondary Coagulation Standard (lot #2), which has an assigned value of 96% activity and 97% antigen for Protein C and 92% activity and 93% antigen for ATIII. Both controls are negative for lupus anticoagulant, and the Biophen Normal Control Plasma is also tested for the absence of activated protein C resistance (APC-r).
