Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The Chromostrate Antithrombin III Assay is an in vitro diagnostic device classified as an Antithrombin III Quantitation test. It quantifies antithrombin III, a plasma protein that regulates blood coagulation and whose deficiency is linked to thromboembolic disorders. The assay provides objective measurement of antithrombin III levels, aiding in the diagnosis and management of coagulation disorders.
This assay is intended for use in clinical laboratories under the direction of qualified personnel. Supplied as a single-use diagnostic reagent, it requires validation per standard laboratory protocols. The device carries an FDA 510(k) clearance (K850412) under product code JBQ, classified as a Class II medical device. Storage and handling must comply with manufacturer instructions to maintain assay integrity, though no specific sterility or MRI safety requirements are noted in regulatory records.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026
What is the Chromostrate Antithrombin III Assay used for?
This assay quantifies antithrombin III, a plasma protein that regulates blood coagulation. Low levels are associated with thromboembolic disorders, so the test helps diagnose and monitor coagulation-related conditions in patients.
Is the Chromostrate Antithrombin III Assay single-use or reusable?
The assay is supplied as a single-use diagnostic reagent. Each kit is designed for one-time use to ensure accurate and reliable results, requiring validation per standard laboratory protocols before each run.
How should the Chromostrate Antithrombin III Assay be stored?
Storage and handling must follow the manufacturer’s instructions to preserve assay integrity. While no specific sterility or MRI safety requirements are noted, proper conditions (e.g., temperature, humidity) are critical to maintain reagent stability and test validity.
Does the Chromostrate Antithrombin III Assay require special handling for sterility?
The device is not labeled with sterility requirements in regulatory records, but standard laboratory practices for in vitro diagnostics should be followed. Since it’s a single-use reagent, contamination risks are mitigated by proper storage and usage protocols.
What regulatory clearance does the Chromostrate Antithrombin III Assay hold?
The assay holds FDA 510(k) clearance (K850412) under product code JBQ, classified as a Class II medical device. This clearance confirms it is substantially equivalent to a predicate device for quantitating antithrombin III in clinical settings.
