The Bio-Rad Homocysteine by HPLC test is intended for the quantitative determination of total Homocysteine in human plasma or serum. The device can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of having hyperhomocysteinemia or homocysteinuria. For in vitro diagnostic use only.
Device Story
Bio-Rad Homocysteine by HPLC is an in vitro diagnostic test for human plasma or serum. Process involves precolumn derivatization via chemical reduction and fluorescent labeling with a thiol-specific dye; 5-minute incubation; separation of homocysteine, internal standard, and biological thiols (glutathione, cysteine, cysteinglycine) on a reversed-phase cartridge; fluorescence detection (lex=385 nm, lem=515 nm). Quantitative analysis performed using Bio-Rad Clinical Data Management System. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Output provides homocysteine concentration levels to assist clinicians in diagnosing and managing hyperhomocysteinemia or homocysteinuria.

Indications for Use
Indicated for quantitative determination of total homocysteine in human plasma or serum to assist in diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of hyperhomocysteinemia or homocysteinuria.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A urinary homocystine (nonquantitative) test system is a device intended to identify homocystine (an analogue of the amino acid cystine) in urine. The identification of urinary homocystine is used in the diagnosis and treatment of homocystinuria (homosystine in urine), a heritable metabolic disorder which may cause mental retardation.

#### Description of Device
The Bio-Rad Homocysteine by HPLC test is based on precolumn derivatization and a 5 minute chromatography. The precolumn derivatization includes a release of the plasma/serum bound fraction of Homocysteine by a chemical reduction and subsequent fluorescent labeling with a thiolspecific dye. Reduction and derivatization require only 5 minute incubation. Separation of Homocysteine, Internal Standard and other biological thiols (Glutathione, Cysteine, Cysteinglycine) takes place on a selected Reversed Phase cartridge followed by fluorescence detection (lex = 385 nm, lem = 515 nm). Quantitative analysis is performed using the Bio Rad Clinical Data Management System (K960392).
### Testing To Establish Substantial Equivalence
To establish substantial equivalence to an existing device, and thus establish the safety and effectiveness, the Bio-Rad Homocysteine by HPLC is compared to the AXIS® Homocysteine Enzyme Immunoassay (K980907). A review of the intended use of each system shows them to be the same, in that, both methods are intended for the quantitative measurement of homocysteine.

#### Technical Characteristics Compared to Predicate
{2}------------------------------------------------
A correlation study to determine accuracy of the Bio-Rad Laboratories Homocysteine by HPLC assay was done against the AXIS® Homocysteine Enzyme Immunoassay method. The coefficient of correlation was 0.9472, the slope was 1.023, and the Y-Intercept was -0.542.
When considering an excellent correlation between the AXIS® Homocysteine Enzyme Immunoassay and the Bio-Rad Laboratories Homocysteine by HPLC method, it can be concluded that the Bio-Rad Laboratories Homocysteine by HPLC assay is substantially equivalent to the AXIS® Homocysteine Enzyme Immunoassay method, which has been 510K cleared. Based on the establishment of substantial equivalence, the safety and effectiveness of the Bio-Rad Laboratories Homocysteine by HPLC assay is confirmed.

Dear Ms. Klimley
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
