Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Test System is an immunochemical assay device designed to measure C-reactive protein levels in serum and other body fluids. CRP is a blood protein that rises in response to inflammation, infection, or tissue injury, making this system useful for diagnostic evaluation in immunology-related assessments. It operates via immunochemical techniques to quantify CRP concentrations, aiding in the assessment of inflammatory conditions.
This system is supplied as a reagent kit intended for use exclusively with Technicon RA Systems, a legacy automated immunoassay analyzer. It is classified as a Class II medical device under FDA regulation 866.5270 and holds a FDA 510(k) clearance (K863628) with a decision of Substantially Equivalent (SESE). The reagents are non-sterile and intended for single-use in laboratory settings, with no MRI safety considerations. Storage and handling must adhere to manufacturer guidelines to ensure accurate test results.
