Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The Alkaline Phosphatase Isoenzyme System is an electrophoretic separation device designed to identify and quantify alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes in serum or plasma. Alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes are variants of the enzyme alkaline phosphatase, each associated with specific tissues such as liver, bone, parathyroid, or intestine. This system aids in the differential diagnosis of conditions affecting these organs by distinguishing between isoenzyme patterns.
This device is intended for use in clinical chemistry laboratories and is supplied as a traditional 510(k)-cleared system under FDA authorization (K885024). It is classified as a Class II device and is used for single-use applications. The system requires proper storage and handling as per manufacturer guidelines, with no specific MRI safety considerations noted. The product is regulated under the FDA’s 510(k) pathway for substantial equivalence, ensuring compliance with clinical chemistry diagnostic standards.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026
What is the Alkaline Phosphatase Isoenzyme System used for?
This system is designed to separate and quantify alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes in serum or plasma samples. Isoenzymes are enzyme variants linked to specific tissues, such as the liver, bone, parathyroid, or intestine. By distinguishing between these isoenzyme patterns, clinicians can help differentiate conditions affecting these organs, improving diagnostic accuracy for conditions like metabolic bone disease, liver dysfunction, or gastrointestinal disorders.
How is the Alkaline Phosphatase Isoenzyme System supplied and intended for use?
The system is supplied as a traditional 510(k)-cleared device under FDA authorization (K885024) and is intended exclusively for single-use applications in clinical chemistry laboratories. It is not reusable and must be handled according to manufacturer guidelines to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Is the system sterile, and what storage requirements apply?
The Alkaline Phosphatase Isoenzyme System is not explicitly described as sterile in the provided data, but it is intended for single-use in clinical settings. Proper storage and handling are critical to maintain its integrity and performance. Users should follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for storage conditions, which likely include protection from extreme temperatures, moisture, and contamination.
Are there any safety concerns related to MRI use with this device?
The provided data does not mention any specific MRI safety considerations for this system. However, since it is a single-use clinical chemistry device, it is not designed for use in MRI environments. Clinicians should confirm compatibility with their facility’s MRI protocols if applicable, though this device is not intended for such settings.
What regulatory pathway does this device follow, and what does that mean for users?
This system is regulated under the FDA’s 510(k) pathway, specifically classified as substantially equivalent (SESE) to a predicate device. This means it has been reviewed and cleared as a Class II medical device for use in clinical chemistry laboratories. The clearance ensures compliance with diagnostic standards, but users should always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for proper operation and maintenance.
