K080459 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the CHROMESYTEMS TOXICOLOGY CALIBRATORS AND CONTROLS. Classified as Drug Specific Control Materials (product code LAS), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Chromsystems Instruments & Chemicals GmbH (Marietta, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 17, 2009 after a review of 636 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Toxicology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.3280 - the FDA toxicology device framework. The Abbreviated 510(k) pathway was used, relying on FDA-recognized standards to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

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