The measurement of a-antitrypsin aids in the diagnosis of several conditions including adult cirrhosis of the liver. In addition, a r-antitrypsin deficiency has been associated with pulmonary emphysema in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings. ## Device Story In vitro diagnostic reagent kit for quantitative measurement of alpha-1-antitrypsin in human serum, heparinized plasma, or EDTA plasma. Operates via immunonephelometry on BN™ Systems; proteins in sample form immune complexes with specific antibodies; complexes scatter light beam; scattered light intensity proportional to protein concentration; result determined by comparison against known standard. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Output aids clinicians in diagnosing liver cirrhosis and pulmonary emphysema associated with alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Method comparison studies performed to demonstrate equivalence between serum and heparinized or EDTA plasma. Results showed correlation coefficients between 0.97 and 0.99. ## Technological Characteristics Quantitative immunonephelometry reagent; polyclonal rabbit anti-human α1-antitrypsin antibody. Form factor: 2mL or 5mL vials. Instrumentation: BN II, BN 100, BN ProSpec® Nephelometers. Measurement range: 0.16–5.2 g/L. No specific material standards or software algorithm classes (e.g., ML) are described; the system relies on light scattering intensity proportional to immune complex formation. ## Regulatory Identification An alpha-1-antitrypsin immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the alpha-1-antitrypsin (a plasma protein) in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. The measurements aid in the diagnosis of several conditions including juvenile and adult cirrhosis of the liver. In addition, alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency has been associated with pulmonary emphysema. ## Predicate Devices - N Antisera to Human a - Antitrypsin ([K860894](/device/K860894.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Device Name/ Classification: N Antisera to Human α-Antitrypsin Class: a4-Antitrypsin Immunological Test System, Class II, 21 CFR 866.5130 Panel: Immunology Product Code: DEM #### 3. ldentification of the Legally Marketed Device: N Antisera to Human a - Antitrypsin - K860894 #### 4. Device Description: Proteins contained in human body fluids form immune complexes in an immunochemical reaction with specific antibodies. These complexes statter a beam of light passed through the sample. The intensity of the scattered light is proportional to the concentration of the relevant protein in the sample. The result is evaluated by comparison with a standard of known concentration. {1}------------------------------------------------ #### 5. Device Intended Use: In vitro diagnostic reagents for the quantitative determination of a-antitrypsin in human serum, heparinized and EDTA plasma by means of immunonephelometry on the BN™ Systems. ### Medical device to which equivalence is claimed and comparison information: 6. The modified N Antisera to Human a -- Antitrypsin assay is substantially equivalent to the N Antisera to Human a - Antitrypsin currently marketed (K860894). The modified N. Antisera to Human a - Antitrypsin assay, like the current N Antisera to Human a - Antitrypsin assay, is intended for the quantitative determination of a - antitrypsin by means of immunonephelometry on the BN™ Systems. #### 7. Device Performance Characteristics: To demonstrate equivalence in measurement between serum and heparinized or EDTA plasma, method comparisons were performed. The studies demonstrate equivalent performance with correlation coefficients between 0.97 and 0.99 {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
