Device Story
Lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay for qualitative detection of methadone and morphine in human urine. Available in dip card or integrated cup formats. Principle: competitive binding; urine sample migrates via capillary action; drug in sample competes with drug-protein conjugate for antibody-dye conjugate binding sites. Negative result: colored test line appears (drug concentration below cutoff). Positive result: no test line (drug concentration at or above cutoff). Control line confirms proper flow. Used in home or clinical settings; operated by lay users or healthcare professionals. Provides preliminary screening results; requires GC/MS confirmation. Assists in identifying potential drug use; supports clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical trials performed. Performance established via analytical bench testing and a lay-user study. Lay-user study (n=140 per format/drug) compared results against GC/MS, showing high agreement (97.1%–98.6% total agreement). Analytical precision, specificity, and cross-reactivity studies confirmed performance at cutoff concentrations.
Technological Characteristics
Lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. Components: mouse monoclonal antibody-dye conjugate (gold chloride), immobilized drug-protein conjugate, anti-mouse IgG polyclonal antibody on membrane. Formats: dip card or integrated cup. Qualitative readout. No external energy source. Standalone device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative detection of methadone (300 ng/mL cutoff) or morphine (2000 ng/mL cutoff) in human urine. Intended for prescription and over-the-counter use in individuals suspected of drug use. Provides preliminary results; requires confirmatory testing (GC/MS).

## I. Device Description:
The tests are in different formats: dip card and cup
{2}
Page 3 of 20
The Dip Card format is a test with an integrated cup. It is a rapid test for the qualitative detection of Methadone and Morphine. It is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay. When the absorbent end of the test device is immersed into the urine sample, the urine is absorbed into the device by capillary action, mixes with the antibody-dye conjugate, and flows across the pre-coated membrane. When sample drug levels are zero or below the target cut off (the detection sensitivity of the test), antibody-dye conjugate binds to the drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test Region (T) of the device. This produces a colored Test line, which regardless of its intensity, indicates a negative result.
When sample drug levels are at or above the target cutoff, the free drug in the binding sample binds to the antibody-dye conjugate preventing the antibody-dye conjugate from binding to the drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test region (T) of the device. This prevents the development of a distinct colored band in the test region, indicating a potentially positive result.
To serve as a procedure control, a colored line will appear at the Control Region (C), if the test has been performed properly because of the antibody-dye conjugate binding to antimouse IgG immobilized in the Control Region of the device.
The Cup format is the same function or performance specification of dip card. It is composed of an integrated cup and a functional dip card. When the key is inserted to the cup and rotated to activate the test, the urine is absorbed into the device by capillary action, mixes with the antibody-dye conjugate, and flows across the pre-coated membrane. When sample drug levels are zero or below the target cut off (the detection sensitivity of the test), antibody-dye conjugate binds to the drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test Region (T) of the device. This produces a colored Test line, which regardless of its intensity, indicates a negative result.
When sample drug levels are at or above the target cutoff, the free drug in the binding sample binds to the antibody-dye conjugate preventing the antibody-dye conjugate from binding to the drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test region (T) of the device. This prevents the development of a distinct colored band in the test region, indicating a potentially positive result.
To serve as a procedure control, a colored line will appear at the Control Region (C), if the test has been performed properly because of the antibody-dye conjugate binding to antimouse IgG immobilized in the Control Region of the device.

## M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
### 1. Analytical performance:
#### a. Precision/Reproducibility:
The precision study was performed by taking negative urine samples and spiking these with: 600, 525, 450, 375, 300, 225, 150, 75 and 0 ng/ml of methadone, corresponding to ± 25, 50, 75, and 100% of the 300 ng/ml cut-off value; and 4000, 3500, 300, 2500, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500 and 0 ng/ml of morphine, corresponding to ± 25, 50, 75, and 100% of the 2000 ng/ml cut-off value. Two sets of operators performed the testing (group A ran the cup format and group B ran the dip card format) and the samples were divided into 12 sets of 25 (one set per lot per run for each format). Three lots of the cup and three lots of the dip card formats of the Wondfo Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine (2000) Urine Test were used. Each of three operators tested 2 aliquots at each concentration for each lot per day (2 runs per day for 25 days), resulting in a total of 50 determinations by each operator at each concentration. The operators were blinded. A summary of the results is presented in the tables below.

{6}
Page 7 of 20
Specificity and cross-reactivity was performed by using three batches of both the cup and dip card formats of the Wondfo Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine (2000) Urine Tests. The samples were split into two aliquots and one group of operators ran the cup format on one set of aliquots and a separate group of operators ran the dip card format on the other set of aliquots. Thirty drug-free urine samples were tested and all were found to be negative, five were confirmed by GC/MS to have a concentration of zero. Cross-reactivity was determined by spiking the target drug, drug metabolites and the same class compounds that may cross-react with the target drugs into drug-free urine at three different concentrations and measuring the samples in triplicate using three batches of cups and three batches of dip cards.

The pH of a drug-free urine pool was adjusted to pH 4, pH 5, pH 6, pH 7, pH 8 or pH 9; the urine was spiked with ± 25% of the cut-off concentration of methadone or morphine, individually and tested using three batches of cup and three batches of dip card of the Wondfo Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine (2000) Urine Tests, respectively. The spiked, pH-adjusted urine was tested in triplicate. Altering the pH of the urine sample did not affect the accuracy of any of the test results.
The specific gravity of a drug-free urine pool was measured by obtaining urine samples with specific gravities of 1.000-1.035 and spiking with ± 25% of the cut-off concentration of methadone and morphine, individually using three batches of cup and three batches of dip card of the Wondfo Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine (2000) Urine Test, respectively. The spiked urines of different specific gravities were tested in triplicate. The results indicate that there is stable performance of the Wondfo Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine Urine Tests when urine has a specific gravity between 1.00-1.035.
f. Assay cut-off:
The assay cut off was investigated by using three batches of both the cup and dip card of the Wondfo Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine (2000) Urine Test to test 150 urine samples each. These samples came from the Shezhen Drug Addiction Recovery Center (25 Drug urine samples each with Methadone or morphine) and from drug-free urine samples (125 samples) spiked with methadone or morphine (125 samples for each drug) diluted from the International Drug Standard (Sigma) to concentrations that are plus and minus 25% and 50% of the cutoff concentrations. Drug concentrations were confirmed by GC/MS. Results were read by three laboratory assistants with relevant experience. The cutoff studies were performed by two separate groups of operators (one for the strip format and one for the cassette format). Three operators in each group performed the readings and they were blinded to the sample. Each result was confirmed by at least two assistants.

# 2. Comparison studies:
a. Method comparison with predicate device:
1. Performance of the Wondfo Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine (2000) Urine Test (cup and dip stick formats) was established by comparing 80 samples of each analyte against GC/MS. These samples came from drug-free urine (10 samples each), the Shezhen Drug Addiction Recovery Center (70 samples for each analyte) and from clinical samples with concentrations ranges as follows: drug free urine, $< -50\%$ of the cut-off, $-50\%$ of the cut-off to the cut-off, cut-off to $+50\%$ of the cut-off, and $> +50\%$ of the Cut-off. There were two groups of operators (one for the cup format and one for the dip stick format) and they were blinded to the samples. Each result was read by three laboratory assistants with relevant experience and a lay person with no experience other than reading the instructions for use.

B. A lay-user study was performed to assess the suitability of the device for home use. Six drug-free urine sample pools were spiked to $\pm 25\%$, $\pm 50\%$, $\pm 75\%$ of the cutoff of target drug, additionally a negative urine pool with no drug was tested. These concentrations were confirmed by GC/MS and aliquoted into 40 individual containers per concentration (20 aliquots per concentration for each strip format). The testing was performed at three sites by 140 blinded consumers divided between three sites (140 users for cup, 140 for dip card for each of the Wondfo
{15}
Page 16 of 20
Methadone Urine Test and Wondfo Morphine (2000) Urine Test). The lay users were chosen from likely intended users at the Guangzhou No. 8 People's Hospital, Guangzhou Mental Hospital, and Guangdong Provincial No. 2 People's Hospital. Each participant received the package inset, 1 blinded sample, and either a test cup or dip card. The lay persons test result was compared to the GC/MS result to demonstrate accuracy by lay-users. The following are the results of the lay-user study pooled together from all three sites for the cup format:

Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
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.
