Overview
AI-generated summary, 19 Sep 2026
The Ventrex Coated Tube IGE Enzyme Immunoassay is a System, Test, Radioallergosorbent (RAST) Immunological device designed for the quantitative measurement of Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in serum or plasma samples. It employs enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technology to detect and quantify specific IgE levels, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of allergic conditions such as asthma, hay fever, and food allergies.
This device is supplied as a coated tube assay kit, intended for single-use in clinical laboratory settings. It is regulated under 21 CFR 866.5750 and received FDA 510(k) clearance (K905636) as substantially equivalent to a predicate device. The assay requires standard laboratory equipment and adheres to immunology best practices, with no specific MRI safety or sterility requirements noted beyond typical laboratory handling. Storage conditions are not detailed but are assumed to follow standard assay reagent protocols.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 19 Sep 2026
What clinical conditions is this device primarily used to diagnose or monitor, and how does it work?
This device is designed for diagnosing and monitoring allergic conditions such as asthma, hay fever, and food allergies by quantifying Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in serum or plasma samples. It uses enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technology within a coated tube assay format to detect and measure specific IgE levels, helping clinicians assess allergy severity or response to treatment.
Is this device intended for single-use or repeated use in a clinical setting?
The Ventrex Coated Tube IGE Enzyme Immunoassay is explicitly supplied as a single-use kit, meaning each assay tube is intended for one test cycle only. This design ensures accuracy and prevents cross-contamination in clinical laboratory settings.
What storage conditions should be followed for this device, and are there any special handling requirements?
While specific storage conditions aren’t detailed in the provided data, this assay kit follows standard laboratory reagent protocols. It should be stored according to manufacturer guidelines (likely refrigerated or at room temperature, as is typical for ELISA reagents) to maintain stability and performance. No special sterility or MRI safety requirements are noted beyond routine laboratory handling.
What regulatory pathway was followed for this device’s clearance, and which advisory committee reviewed it?
This device received FDA clearance through a 510(k) submission, classified as *Traditional*, and was determined *Substantially Equivalent* to a predicate device. The review was conducted by the Immunology (IM) Advisory Committee, and the product falls under 21 CFR 866.5750 for immunological assays. The clearance number is K905636.
