Intended Use
The VIDAS® RUB IgG (RBG) assay uses Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay (ELFA) technology on the VIDAS® automated instruments for the in vitro quantitative and qualitative measurement of IgG antibodies to rubella virus in human serum. The VIDAS® RUB IgG assay is intended as an aid in the determination of immune status to rubella. The performance of this device has not been established for screening of cord blood, or for neonatal samples. Likewise, performance characteristics of the assay have not been established for immunocompromised or immunosuppressed individuals.
Device Story
VIDAS® RUB IgG is an automated enzyme-linked fluorescent immunoassay (ELFA) for detecting rubella-specific IgG in human serum. The system uses a Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR®) as both a pipette tip and solid phase, and a reagent strip containing assay reagents. The process involves: sample dilution; incubation in the SPR where anti-rubella IgG binds to rubella antigen; washing; incubation with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated anti-human IgG; and final fluorescent detection using 4-methyl-umbelliferyl phosphate substrate. The VIDAS instrument measures fluorescence intensity, which is proportional to antibody concentration. Results are calculated against a stored calibration curve traceable to the WHO 1st International Standard (RUBI-1-94). The device is used in clinical laboratories by professional staff. Output is a quantitative value (IU/mL) used alongside clinical history to assess rubella immune status. The automated workflow reduces manual handling and provides standardized, objective results for clinical decision-making regarding vaccination or infection risk.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance was evaluated using 1,130 specimens (prospective and retrospective) compared against a consensus of three FDA-cleared assays. The study included pregnant women and general populations. Results showed high positive agreement (92.0%–97.1%) and negative agreement (66.7%–100%) across cohorts. CDC panel testing (100 samples) demonstrated 97.6% positive and 100% negative agreement. Analytical studies confirmed linearity (0–274 IU/mL), precision (total CV 10.2%–13.8%), and lack of cross-reactivity with common disease states. No clinical data for immunocompromised or neonatal populations.
Technological Characteristics
ELFA technology; automated instrument-based. Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR) coated with rubella antigen. Detection: 450 nm fluorescence. Reagents: alkaline phosphatase-labeled mouse monoclonal anti-human IgG. Standardization: traceable to WHO 1st International Rubella Reference Standard. Measurement range: 0-400 IU/mL. Sample volume: 100 μL.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative and qualitative measurement of IgG antibodies to rubella virus in human serum to aid in the determination of immune status to rubella. Not for use in cord blood, neonatal samples, or immunocompromised/immunosuppressed individuals.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Rubella virus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to rubella virus in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of rubella (German measles) or confirmation of a person's immune status from past infections or immunizations and provides epidemiological information on German measles. Newborns infected in the uterus with rubella virus may be born with multiple congenital defects (rubella syndrome).

#### D. Device Description
The assay principle combines a 2-step enzyme immunoassay sandwich method with a final fluorescent detection (ELFA). The Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR®) serves as the solid phase as well as the pipetting device for the assay. It is coated with Rubella antigen. The other reagents for the assay are ready-to-use and pre-dispensed in the sealed reagent strips. The individual kit components are described in detail on the following pages.
All of the assay steps are performed automatically by the instrument. The reaction medium is cycled in and out of the SPR several times. This operation enables the Rubella antigen fixed onto the interior wall of the SPR to capture the Rubella antibodies present in the sample. After dilution, the sample is incubated with the SPR. Rubella IgG antibodies present in the specimen bind to the Rubella antigen coating the interior of the SPR. Unbound components are eliminated during the preliminary wash step.
A second incubation step is then performed using alkaline phosphatase labeled monoclonal anti-human IgG antibodies (mouse), followed by a second wash step.
During the final detection step, the substrate (4-Methyl-umbellifery) phosphate) is cycled in and out of the SPR. The conjugate enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of this substrate into a fluorescent product (4-Methyl-umbelliferone), the fluorescence of which is measured at 450 nm.
The intensity of the fluorescence is proportional to the concentration of antibodies present in the sample. At the end of the assay, results are automatically calculated by the instrument in relation to the calibration curve stored in memory, and then printed out.
