## Indications for Use

This product is intended for use as an unassayed control material on the Abbott LCx Probe System with the Abbott Chlamydia Amplification Kit in the qualitative determination of Chlamydia trachomatis. This product is intended to serve as an unassayed control material to monitor the analytical precision of the LCR amplification system incorporated in the Abbott LCx Probe System used in conjunction with the Abbott Chlamydia Amplification Kit. Response ratios (S/CO) have been set at appropriate positive (+) and negative (-) levels. This product is intended for in vitro use only.

## Device Story

Device consists of positive and negative control materials in stabilized biological matrix; packaged in 2 mL plastic screw-cap bottles. Used in clinical laboratory settings by laboratory technicians to monitor analytical precision of Abbott LCx Probe System during Chlamydia trachomatis testing. Device provides known positive and negative samples to validate analytical run validity. Healthcare providers use output (S/CO ratio) to ensure assay performance; helps verify accuracy of patient test results; benefits patients by ensuring reliable diagnostic testing for Chlamydia trachomatis.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Liquid control material in stabilized biological matrix. Two levels (positive and negative). 2 mL volume. Compatible with Abbott LCx Probe System. No specific materials of construction or software algorithms described; device is a chemical control reagent.

## Regulatory 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.
