510(k) K914155
Overview
The TIA CRP Test Kit is a diagnostic device used for the qualitative detection of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in human serum. CRP is a blood protein that rises in response to inflammation, infection, or tissue injury, making this test useful in immunology for monitoring inflammatory conditions. The kit employs a turbidimmunometric assay to measure CRP levels, providing a reliable indicator for diagnostic evaluation.
This test kit is intended for in vitro diagnostic use and is supplied as a single-use, non-sterile reagent kit. It is classified under 21 CFR 866.5270 and has received FDA 510(k) clearance (K914155) as substantially equivalent to a predicate device. The kit includes antigen, antiserum, and control components, with product code DCK. Storage conditions and specific procedural instructions are detailed in the accompanying documentation.
