K103116 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the AP-2000, AP-2010, AND AP-2020 BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEM. Classified as Glucose Oxidase, Glucose (product code CGA), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Bestgen Biotech Corp. (Jung-He, Taipei County, TW). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 13, 2012 after a review of 509 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1345 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. As a Special 510(k), this submission covers a manufacturer modification to an existing cleared device rather than a new device introduction.

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 Chemistry submissions.
