K050590 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ENZY-WELL SYPHILIS IGG, MODEL 91106. Classified as Enzyme Linked Immunoabsorption Assay, Treponema Pallidum (product code LIP), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Diesse Diagnostica Senese S.P.A. (Miami, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 10, 2006 after a review of 520 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Microbiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.3830 - the FDA microbiology device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind Microbiology submissions.
