Intended Use
The Access Toxo IgG assay is a paramagnetic-particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the qualitative and quantitative determination of IgG antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum, using the Access Immunoassay Systems. The Access Toxo IgG assay aids in the diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii infection and in the determination of protective levels of antibodies in pregnant women.
Device Story
The Access Toxo IgG assay is a paramagnetic-particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay used to detect IgG antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum. The device utilizes reagent packs, calibrators, QC, substrate, and wash buffer. It is designed for use on Beckman Coulter Access Immunoassay Systems, including the UniCel Dxl 800. The system processes samples to provide qualitative and quantitative results, which are used by clinicians to diagnose infection and assess protective antibody levels in pregnant patients. The modification described involves expanding the platform compatibility to include the Dxl 800 system, maintaining the same reagents and performance specifications as the predicate.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only; verification and validation activities performed per design control requirements to confirm performance on the Dxl 800 Access Immunoassay System.
Technological Characteristics
Paramagnetic-particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay. Components include reagent packs, calibrators, QC, substrate, and wash buffer. System is an automated immunoassay analyzer (UniCel Dxl 800).
Indications for Use
Indicated for the qualitative and quantitative determination of IgG antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum to aid in the diagnosis of infection and determination of protective antibody levels in pregnant women.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Toxoplasma gondii serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent reagents) used to identify Toxoplasma gondii from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis caused by the parasitic protozoan Toxoplasma gondii and provides epidemiological information on this disease. Congenital toxoplasmosis is characterized by lesions of the central nervous system, which if undetected and untreated may lead to brain defects, blindness, and death of an unborn fetus. The disease is characterized in children by inflammation of the brain and spinal cord.

## 510(k) Summary
# (Page 2 of 2)
# Description of the Modification to the Legally Marketed Device
The modification to the Access Toxo IgG assay is to add a new instrument platform, the Beckman Coulter UniCel™ Dxl 800 Access® Immunoassay System, to the family of Access Immunoassay Systems. The Dxl System is a new model within the same model series of Access Immunoassay Systems manufactured and distributed by Beckman Coulter, Inc. The DxI System was cleared for marketing by FDA on January 28, 2003, (K023764).
The DxI uses the same Access Toxo IgG reagents, Calibrators and QC, packaged the same as for the Access 2 System. The formulations of the substrate and wash buffer used with the Access Toxo IgG assay are unchanged. There are no changes to the intended uses, technical specifications or final performance specifications and claims for the assay.
### Supporting Data
In order to demonstrate that the Access Toxo IgG assay on the Dxl System is substantially equivalent to the Access Toxo IgG assay on the Access 2 System, reproducibility, concordance and linearity studies were conducted. The Access Toxo IgG assay met the established acceptance criteria for reproducibility and demonstrated acceptable concordance and linearity. A method comparison (linear regression) study completed using the concordance study data demonstrated good correlation between the DxI and Access 2 Systems.
# Conclusion
The information provided in this submission supports a substantial equivalence determination, and therefore, 510(k) premarket notification clearance of the Access Toxo IgG Assay on the UniCel Dxl 800 Access Immunoassay System.
