Device Story
The BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG is a multiplex flow immunoassay performed on the BioPlex 2200 System. It uses four populations of dyed beads coated with specific viral antigens (Measles, Mumps, Rubella, VZV) to simultaneously detect IgG antibodies in a single patient sample. The system mixes patient sample, diluent, and bead reagent in a reaction vessel; incubates at 37°C; washes; adds phycoerythrin (PE)-conjugated anti-human IgG; incubates again; washes; and passes the beads through a detector. The system identifies beads by dye fluorescence and quantifies antibody binding via PE fluorescence, reporting results as relative fluorescence intensity (RFI). Internal Standard, Serum Verification, and Reagent Blank beads verify system performance and sample addition. Used in clinical laboratories by trained personnel to aid in determining patient serological status.
Clinical Evidence

Regulatory Classification
Identification
Rubella virus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to rubella virus in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of rubella (German measles) or confirmation of a person's immune status from past infections or immunizations and provides epidemiological information on German measles. Newborns infected in the uterus with rubella virus may be born with multiple congenital defects (rubella syndrome).

## L. Test Principle:
The BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit employs a panel of four antigen-coated fluoromagnetic beads with unique fluorescent signatures to identify the presence of IgG class antibodies to Measles, Mumps, Rubella, and VZV antigens in a two step assay format.
Step 1: The system combines an aliquot of patient sample with sample diluent and bead reagent then agitates the mixture at 37°C.
Step 2: Immobilized IgG antibodies are bound to a phycoerythrin (PE)-labeled antihuman IgG conjugate and detected by flow cytometry.
The fluorescence of the dyes determines the identity of the beads and the fluorescence of the PE label determines the amount of antibody captured by the antigen. The device calculates the results in relative fluorescence intensity (RFI). Additionally, the ISB beads, SVB beads and a RBB beads are present in each reaction mixture to verify detector response, the addition of serum or plasma to the reaction vessel and the absence of significant non-specific binding in serum or plasma.
The BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Calibrator Set calibrates the instrument. The BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Reagent Pack is calibrated using a set of three (3) distinct serum based calibrators. Calibrators are used in a test system to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of qualitative numeric measurement of IgG antibodies to Measles, Mumps, Rubella, and Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in human serum and EDTA or heparinized plasma. The MMRV IgG Calibrator Set should be loaded and assayed at minimum in duplicate every 30 days or with each new Re-agent Pack lot.
The BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Control Set includes a negative control as well as a positive control containing antibodies present for analytes within the BioPlex 2200
8
{8}
MMRV IgG Reagent Pack. The positive control is manufactured to give positive results for antibodies to Measles, Mumps, Rubella, and VZV with values above the cut-off for each specific assay. The negative control is manufactured to give negative results, with values below the cut-off for each specific assay. The mean values were derived from replicate analyses and should fall within the corresponding standard deviation. A BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Control Lot Data disk is available to load the necessary value assignment data into the instrument. The result for each of the tested antibodies is expressed as an antibody index (AI). For Mumps, Measles, and VZV, an AI of ≤ 0.8 indicates a negative result. An equivocal result is reported for an AI of either 0.9 or 1.0. AI results ≥1.1 are reported as positive. For Rubella, an AI of ≤ 0.7 indicates a negative result. An equivocal result is reported for an AI of either 0.8 or 0.9. AI results ≥1.0 are reported as positive.
## M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
### 1. Analytical performance:
#### a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Separate internal and external studies were conducted to evaluate the precision of the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit assays on the BioPlex 2200 Multi-Analyte Detection System. The internal precision study was conducted in-house by Bio-Rad Laboratories in accordance with CLSI EP5-A2. The internal Precision Study of the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG assay was assessed using serum, EDTA plasma and heparin plasma samples containing IgG class antibodies to Measles, Mumps, Rubella and (or) VZV. Reproducibility was determined by calculating the within-run (intra-assay), between-run (inter-assay), between day (inter-assay) and total precision using a reproducibility panel prepared at Bio-Rad Laboratories (Benicia, CA) consisting of analyte positive patient samples. Testing was conducted internally at Bio-Rad Laboratories. Twenty days of precision data were collected for the reagent set. Two runs were performed each day spaced by at least two hours. Assay calibration was conducted at the start of the study and all samples were randomized for each run. Controls were run daily to qualify the run. Each sample was run in duplicate per run for a total of eighty data points per sample for the twenty day analysis (forty data points for the ten day analysis). Data analysis was based on CLSI EP5-A2 (Evaluation of Precision Performance of Clinical Chemistry Devices). The reproducibility panel of patient samples included at least one high negative sample near the assay decision point, two low positive samples and two high positive samples (see Table 1.) Each sample was prepared by blending serum or plasma with like matrix to obtain the target analyte concentration. Multiple serum or plasma samples were used to make the panels. The BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG reagent kit demonstrated acceptable precision and met the manufacturing design inputs, when tested against a precision sample set containing samples below, near or above the assay cut-off with the exception of one VZV sample with an AI value of 0.3
9
{9}
AI, which gave a within run CV of $14.4\%$ . The within run imprecision for samples with AI $>0.5$ in all sample matrices ranged from $3.2\%$ to $10.1\%$ for Measles, $2.4\%$ to $6.4\%$ for Mumps, $2.9\%$ to $7.2\%$ for Rubella and $2.7\%$ to $6.8\%$ for VZV IgG. Total run imprecision for samples with AI $>0.5$ in all sample matrices ranged from $3.2\%$ to $10.3\%$ for Measles, $1.8\%$ to $7.5\%$ for Mumps, $3.9\%$ to $7.6\%$ for Rubella and $2.7\%$ to $8.4\%$ for VZV IgG.
The external reproducibility study was conducted in accordance with CLSI EP15-A2 during the external clinical evaluation at each of three clinical study sites. The reproducibility of each of the assays in the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit was assessed using three sample panels of different matrices (serum, EDTA plasma, and sodium heparin plasma). The positive samples of the panels were prepared at Bio-Rad Laboratories by pooling one or more antibody positive patient samples for one or more of the analytes in the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Test. The panel consisted of members with varying levels of antibodies to the analytes in the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit, and a positive control (antibody positive for all analytes). Reproducibility testing was performed at 3 U.S. clinical trial sites using three reagent lots of BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Reagent Packs, BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Calibrator Set and the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Control Set. Each site evaluated 1 lot of the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit. Each of the panel members and a positive and negative control was tested in quadruplicate on 1 run per day over 5 days at each of 3 sites (4 replicates x 1 run x 5 days = 20 replicates per panel member per site = 60 total replicates for 3 sites). The data were analyzed for intra-assay and inter-assay reproducibility according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidance EP15-A2 (Vol. 25, No. 17). The mean Antibody Index (AI), standard deviation (SD), and percent coefficient of variation (%CV) for each panel member were calculated. The data for the serum panel is represented below:

# b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
The test is a qualitative assay and linearity data is not required. However, for Rubella the lower range of the assay and the range around the cut-off (0 - 18 IU/ml) is quantitative. The company demonstrated the linearity for this assay range using a titration of the World Health Organization (WHO) anti-Rubella immunoglobulin, 1st International Standard, 1996 (RUBI-1-94). Dilution linearity was assessed in the range of 0 - 18 IU/mL (0 - 1.8 AI). The results were analyzed based on the recommendations in CLSI protocol EP6-A (Vol. 23, No. 16) and are shown in the figure below.

c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
The test is a qualitative assay. However, for Rubella the lower range of the assay and the range around the cut-off $(0 - 20\mathrm{IU / ml})$ and the MMRV IgG calibrators are traceable to the World Health Organization (WHO) anti-Rubella immunoglobulin, 1st International Standard, 1996. The percent recovery for the international standard is represented in the table below.

# Cross-Reactivity
A cross-reactivity study was performed to determine if samples from various disease states and other potentially cross-reacting agents interfere with test results when tested with the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit. Samples known to be high positive samples for each of 13 potentially cross reactive antibodies listed in the table below were evaluated with the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG assays. Due to the high prevalence of IgG antibodies to Measles, Mumps, Rubella, and VZV in the population as a result of vaccination, and in order to properly evaluate the potential cross-reactivity, all samples were pre-tested by commercially available Measles, Mumps, Rubella and VZV assays. The samples which were negative by the commercially available assay were further tested by the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit. The following table summarizes negative agreement between the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG assays and the corresponding commercially available Measles, Mumps, Rubella and VZV assays within each of the thirteen cross-reactant panels. The results demonstrate that the various disease state samples evaluated do not cross-react with the 4 antigens in the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG kit. The potential cross reactivity with ANA IgG antibodies and HCV antibodies was not fully evaluated due to limitations of the sample size tested.

Interfering Substances
Testing for interfering substances was conducted according to CLSI Protocol EP7-A2 (Vol. 25, No. 27). No significant interference was observed in any of the substances tested. Serum component interference ranged from a $-7.1\%$ to $3.8\%$ difference relative to non-spiked controls. Exogenous substance interference ranged from a $-4.0\%$ to $4.2\%$ difference relative to non-spiked controls. The following substances, listed in the table below, were tested at the corresponding concentrations. Test and control samples were evaluated in alternating order in replicates of five each using the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Kit. This sequence was repeated twice for a total of ten replicates per interferent and calculations were made based on EP7-A2 guidelines. Serum components were considered interfering if sample results deviated by more than $\pm 20\%$ ( $\pm$ two standard deviations of the minimal within run precision criterion of $10\%$ C.V.) relative to the value determined in the absence of the interferent. CLSI guidelines (EP7-A2) define interference as an effect that exceeds the normal assay variability and where incremental error caused by the substance is large enough to affect clinical decision making.

f. Assay cut-off:
The cut-off values and assignment of the calibrators are determined by performing concordance and Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) analysis, using predicate results as the standard. This analysis was used to assist in optimizing negative and positive agreement (relative sensitivity and specificity). Based on the results, calibrator values were adjusted such that the cut-off values equal to 1.0 AI for Measles, Mumps, Rubella and VZV IgG assays. The calibration for Rubella was set based on calibration to the WHO RUBI-1-94 Rubella standard. Testing was conducted internally at Bio-Rad Laboratories. An equivocal zone of approximately +/- 10% was applied to the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG assays based on a separate analysis of assay precision at the established cut-off.
A total of 842 samples were evaluated to confirm cut-off values. Predicate testing for Measles, Mumps and VZV was performed at Bio-Rad Quality Systems Division (Irvine, CA) using VIDAS assay kits manufactured by BioMérieux (Durham, NC). Predicate testing for Rubella was performed at Bio-Rad BioPlex Division (Benicia, CA) using the Bio-Rad (Sera Quest) EIA kits manufactured by Quest International (Miami, FL). ROC Analysis was performed for each analyte using this population of samples. For the purpose of establishing a cut-off, predicate equivocal samples were not used during ROC analysis.
BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG assays met or exceeded the concordance specifications established as Design Inputs of ≥ 95% positive agreement as well as ≥ 96% negative agreement for all analytes. The results of concordance testing and ROC analysis validate the cut-off that was established for each of the analytes in the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG assays.

# b. Matrix comparison:
The following three studies were conducted to demonstrate agreement and precision for each matrix as well as specimen transport conditions and analyte stability
- BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Matrix comparison study: this study was conducted in accordance with CLSI EP9-A2 and demonstrates that there is no or minimal assay effect when EDTA and heparinized plasma are compared to serum.
- BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Sample Stability Study: this study provides the basis for fresh and frozen sample storage recommendations as well as the maximum number of freeze/thaw cycles.
- BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG Sample Stability (Special Study) Report: this study provides additional validation of the prospectively collected serum samples used during the clinical trial, on the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG and predicate assays. The clinical samples were collected prospectively and frozen at $-20\mathrm{C}$ for testing at a future date. This study validates this storage practice for the BioPlex 2200 MMRV IgG and predicate assays.
In the matrix comparison study, matched serum and plasma (EDTA and heparin) samples drawn from 50 individual donors were acquired from commercial sources. All samples were evaluated in replicates of two. Plasma AI values were compared to matched serum AI values. All assays in the MMRV IgG kit and all lots pass the slope specification of $1.0 \pm 0.2$ ; intercept specification of $\pm 0.2$ , and correlation (r) of $\geq 0.98$ . The S.E.E (standard estimate of error) was less than 0.22 for all assays. The data has demonstrated that both EDTA and heparin plasma are acceptable matrices for the MMRV IgG assay3.

1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
