## Indications for Use

In vitro diagnostic reagent system intended for use on COBAS INTEGRA systems for the quantitative immunological determination of human complement C4 in serum and plasma.

## Device Story

Tina-quant Complement C4 ver.2 Test System is an in vitro diagnostic reagent system for use on COBAS INTEGRA analyzers. The device measures human complement C4 levels in serum and plasma samples. Principle of operation involves the formation of a precipitate between human C4 and a specific antiserum, which is then measured turbidimetrically. The system is operated by laboratory personnel in a clinical setting. Output is a quantitative measurement of C4 concentration, which healthcare providers use to assist in the diagnosis and monitoring of autoimmune diseases, infections, and inflammatory disorders. The device provides a diagnostic aid to clinicians, potentially facilitating timely clinical decision-making for patients with suspected immune-related conditions.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The submission provides analytical performance data comparing the modified Tina-quant Complement C4 ver.2 Test System to the predicate device, including measuring range (0.04-1.35 g/L) and analytical sensitivity (0.04 g/L). No clinical prospective or retrospective studies were required for this 510(k) clearance.

## Technological Characteristics

Turbidimetric immunoassay reagent system. Utilizes specific antiserum to form precipitate with human C4. Designed for use on COBAS INTEGRA automated analyzer platforms. Wavelength: 340/659 nm. Measuring range: 0.04-1.35 g/L.

## Regulatory Identification

A complement components immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques complement components C1q , C1r , C1s , C2 , C3 , C4 , C5 , C6 , C7 , C8 , and C9 , in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. Complement is a group of serum proteins which destroy infectious agents. Measurements of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components.
