K102400 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the SYPHILIS HEALTH CHECK. Classified as Enzyme Linked Immunoabsorption Assay, Treponema Pallidum (product code LIP), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Diagnostics Direct, LLC (East Stroudsburg, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 1, 2011 after a review of 342 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: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Microbiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
