Questions
AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026
What is the Myoglobin Assay for the Technicon Immuno 1 System used for?
This assay measures myoglobin levels in human serum or heparinized plasma. Myoglobin is a protein released during muscle injury, particularly in cardiac muscle, so elevated levels can indicate early signs of myocardial infarction (heart attack). It is designed to be used alongside clinical data, such as patient symptoms and electrocardiogram (EKG) results, to aid in diagnosis.
How is the Myoglobin Assay supplied, and does it require sterilization?
The Myoglobin Assay is supplied as a single-use diagnostic kit. It is packaged by the manufacturer in a way that ensures sterility, so no additional sterilization is required beyond opening the sealed packaging before use.
Is the Myoglobin Assay compatible with MRI machines?
No, the Myoglobin Assay is not MRI-compatible. This is an in-vitro diagnostic device intended for laboratory use on the Technicon Immuno 1 System, not for use in MRI environments.
What storage instructions should be followed for the Myoglobin Assay?
The Myoglobin Assay must be stored according to the manufacturer’s instructions to maintain its integrity. This typically includes keeping it in a cool, dry place, protected from direct light, and ensuring the packaging remains unopened until use.
What regulatory pathway does the Myoglobin Assay follow?
The Myoglobin Assay for the Technicon Immuno 1 System is regulated under the FDA 510(k) clearance pathway, with a clearance number of K962344. It is classified under product code DDR and falls under Class II with special controls, indicating it has been determined to be substantially equivalent to a legally marketed device.
