## Indications for Use

The GLU7 and BUN7 methods on the QuikLYTE™ Module of the Dimension®XL/RxL clinical chemistry system are in vitro diagnostic tests intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in serum, plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and of urea nitrogen in serum and plasma using Integrated Multisensor Technology (IMT).

## Device Story

The Dade Behring QuikLYTE™ MetaboLYTE cartridge is a sub-system for the Dimension® XL/RxL clinical chemistry system. It processes serum, plasma, or cerebrospinal fluid samples. The system automatically dilutes samples on-board and routes them to a multisensor cartridge utilizing Integrated Multisensor Technology (IMT). Glucose is measured via amperometric detection; urea nitrogen is measured via potentiometric detection. The device is operated by laboratory personnel in a clinical setting. Output is provided as quantitative analyte concentrations, which clinicians use to diagnose and monitor metabolic and renal conditions, including diabetes and hypoglycemia. The device automates the analytical process, providing rapid, standardized results to support clinical decision-making.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. A split-sample comparison study was conducted comparing the QuikLYTE™ MetaboLYTE cartridge to the predicate FLEX™ reagent cartridges. Results for glucose (n=239 serum/plasma, n=60 CSF) showed slopes of 0.99 and 1.05 respectively, with correlation coefficients of 0.998 and 0.996. Results for urea nitrogen (n=231 serum/plasma) showed a slope of 1.01 and a correlation coefficient of 0.996.

## Technological Characteristics

Integrated Multisensor Technology (IMT) cartridge. Glucose detection: amperometric. Urea nitrogen detection: potentiometric. Automated on-board sample dilution. System: Dimension® XL/RxL clinical chemistry system. Connectivity: Integrated into clinical chemistry analyzer platform.

## Regulatory Identification

A glucose test system is a device intended to measure glucose quantitatively in blood and other body fluids. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is solely intended for use as a drink to test glucose tolerance, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

## Predicate Devices

- Glucose (GLU) and urea nitrogen (BUN) methods packaged in FLEX™ reagent cartridges ([K983344](/device/K983344.md))

## Summary of Safety and Effectiveness

This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR 807.92

## Dade Behring QuikLYTE™ MetaboLYTE Cartridge

FDA Classification Name: Glucose Test System and Urea Nitrogen Test System

The Dade Behring QuikLYTE™ MetaboLYTE cartridge performs two in vitro diagnostic tests: glucose (GLU7) and urea nitrogen (BUN7).

Intended Use: The GLU7 and BUN7 methods on the QuikLYTE™ Module of the Dimension®XL/RxL clinical chemistry system are in vitro diagnostic tests intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in serum, plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and of urea nitrogen in serum and plasma using Integrated Multisensor Technology (IMT).

The glucose (GLU7) and urea nitrogen (BUN7) methods use a sample which is diluted automatically on-board the Dimension® XL or RxL clinical chemistry system. The diluted sample is then processed in a multisensor cartridge that uses Integrated Multisensor Technology (IMT). The glucose method uses amperometric detection and the urea nitrogen method uses potentiometric detection to measure the specific analyte in the sample.

The assays performed by the Dade Behring QuikLYTE™ MetaboLYTE cartridge are substantially equivalent to the glucose (GLU) and urea nitrogen (BUN) methods packaged in FLEX™ reagent cartridges, which were cleared by the FDA through the 510(k) process. Both methodologies are processed on an automated system, the Dimension® clinical chemistry system, and are used for the determination of glucose in human serum, plasma, and cerebrospinal fluid and urea nitrogen in human serum or plasma.

A split sample comparison study was conducted with the following results:

|                               | Slope | Intercept  | Correlation<br>Coefficient | Range of<br>Samples | n    |
|-------------------------------|-------|------------|----------------------------|---------------------|------|
| Glucose<br>Serum/Plasma       | 0.99  | 1.6 mg/dL  | 0.998                      | 20 - 415            | 239* |
| Cerebrospinal Fluid           | 1.05  | -1.2 mg/dL | 0.996                      | 3 - 260             | 60   |
| Urea Nitrogen<br>Serum/Plasma | 1.01  | -0.1 mg/dL | 0.996                      | 4 - 80              | 231* |

n = 239; 120 serum and 119 plasma

n = 231; 118 serum and 113 plasma
