K080380 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the SAS INFLUENZA A & B TEST. Classified as Devices Detecting Influenza A, B, And C Virus Antigens (product code PSZ), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Sa Scientific, Inc. (San Antonio, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 23, 2009 after a review of 526 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Microbiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.3328 - 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.

Device Classification

Product Code PSZ Devices Detecting Influenza A, B, And C Virus Antigens
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 866.3328
Definition An Influenza Virus Antigen Detection Test System Is A Device Intended For The Qualitative Detection Of Influenza Viral Antigens Directly From Clinical Specimens In Patients With Signs And Symptoms Of Respiratory Infection.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Microbiology devices follow this clearance model.
