CELL-DYN 22 Plus Calibrator is manufactured for calibration of the CELL-DYN Emerald 22 system. Assayed parameters include: WBC (10⁹/L), RBC (10¹²/L), HGB (g/dL), MCV (fL), PLT (10⁹/L).
Device Story
CELL-DYN 22 Plus Calibrator is an in-vitro diagnostic product used to calibrate the CELL-DYN Emerald 22 hematology system. The product consists of stabilized human or mammalian red blood cells, human, mammalian, or simulated white blood cells, and a platelet component in a preservative medium. It is packaged in 2.5ml polypropylene vials. The calibrator is used by laboratory personnel in a clinical setting to ensure the accuracy of the analyzer's measurements for WBC, RBC, HGB, MCV, and PLT parameters. By providing known values for these parameters, the device allows the analyzer to adjust its internal settings, ensuring accurate patient sample analysis and supporting clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Precision/reproducibility evaluated across 7 CELL-DYN Emerald 22 instruments at 3 sites using 3 lots. All %CV values for WBC, RBC, HGB, MCV, and PLT were <10%, meeting acceptance criteria. Stability verified for 5 days (open vial) and 45 days (closed vial).
Technological Characteristics
Stabilized human/mammalian red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets in preservative medium. Packaged in 2.5 mL polypropylene vials with screw caps. Storage at 2-10°C. Traceable to reference methods. Evaluated per CLSI EP5-A2 and CLSI H26-A2 standards.
Indications for Use
Indicated for prescription use only for the calibration of the CELL-DYN Emerald 22 hematology system.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A calibrator for cell indices is a device that approximates whole blood or certain blood cells and that is used to set an instrument intended to measure mean cell volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), or other cell indices. It is a suspension of particles or cells whose size, shape, concentration, and other characteristics have been precisely and accurately determined.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 864.9.

## L. Test Principle:
The CELL-DYN 22 Plus Calibrator was designed to calibrate the Abbott CELL-DYN Emerald 22 instrument. The assayed values are traceable to reference methods. The product is for in-vitro diagnostic use to calibrate WBC, RBC, HGB, MCV, and PLT.
## M. Performance Characteristics:
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Precision performance: Data was collected internally and at two external sites across seven different CELL-DYN Emerald 22 instruments with multiple operators using 3 lots of CELL-DYN 22 Plus Calibrator. The external sites performed 10 consecutive runs across two different instruments with separate vials of calibrator from each lot. Internally, Streck performed 10 consecutive runs per lot across three instruments. The acceptance criteria are based on a compilation of the $\% \mathrm{CV}$ for each measurand. All $\% \mathrm{CV}$ values were within
{2}
the acceptable threshold value as shown below,
| | Measurand %CV | | | | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Lot | WBC | RBC | HGB | MCV | PLT |
| 09210 | 2.29 | 2.04 | 1.80 | 0.81 | 5.58 |
| 09202 | 2.51 | 2.15 | 1.50 | 0.90 | 5.17 |
| 09189-1 | 2.99 | 1.68 | 1.74 | 0.93 | 5.30 |
| Maximum CV% Acceptance Criteria | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 |
Run-to-run precision was evaluated in a 10-run repeatability study performed with each calibrator lot and with a fresh whole blood sample collected in $\mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{EDTA}$ . Parameter specific SDs and CVs reported with whole blood were compared to those reported with three individual lots of the calibrator. Repeatability attributes of the CELL-DYN 22Plus Calibrator parallel those reported with fresh whole blood with $\% \mathrm{CV}$ values within acceptable limits..
# b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Not applicable
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods): Value assignment: A minimum of three vials were tested on the CELL-DYN Emerald 22 instruments. Duplicate testing on each vial was performed consecutively for a minimum of three test events performed on different dates. The data were entered into the validated QC link database program to calculate the mean, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation for each parameter analyzed. Final assay assignment values were determined using data collected and established product performance characteristics. Expected range values assigned to the assay were based on the standard deviation of the assay data. Assay values were assigned to the calibrator based on $\pm 2.5$ SD for each measurand.
Open vial stability: A 5-day open-vial stability claim was verified using three lots of the CELL-DYN 22 Plus Calibrator. Each lot was tested on days 1, 5 and at minimum one intermediate time interval.
Closed vial stability: A 45-day closed-vial stability claim was verified using three lots of the CELL-DYN 22 Plus Calibrator. Each lot was tested at a minimum every 14 days over a minimum period of 45 days.
The acceptance criteria for open and closed vial stability is based on a compilation of the $\% \mathrm{CV}$ for each measurand over the data collected across 7 different CELL-DYN Emerald 22 instruments, at 3 sites, throughout the product dating claim. Reported $\% \mathrm{CV}$ for each measurand was within the threshold value ( $< 10\%$ CV).
