    Device Name: Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel Multiplex Nucleic Acid-Based Assay System

    Device Class: 2

    Physical State: Gastrointestinal pathogen panel multiplex nucleic acid-based assay systems are devices that consist of reagents and instruments for the simultaneous detection and identification of multiple gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acids extracted from human stool specimens.

    Definition: A gastrointestinal pathogen panel multiplex nucleic acid assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic device intended to simultaneously detect and identify multiple gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acids extracted from human stool specimens. The detection and identification of a specific gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acid from individuals exhibiting signs and/or symptoms of gastrointestinal infection aids in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal infection when used in conjunction with clinical evaluation and other laboratory findings.

    Device Name: Instrumentation For Clinical Multiplex Test Systems

    Device Class: 2

    Physical State: N/A

    Definition: Instrumentation for clinical multiplex test systems is a device that is intended to measure and sort multiple signals generated by an assay from a clinical sample. The generated signals from multiple probes or other ligands may be measured by fluorescence, luminescence, or other physical or chemical properties. The device may integrate scanning, reagent handling, hybridization, washing, dedicated instrument control, data acquisition software, raw data storage mechanisms and other essential hardware components along with the signal reader unit. This instrumentation is used with specific assays to comprise an assay test system to measure multiple analytes of a similar chemical nature for de
