K103834 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the BIOPLEX 2200 APLS IGG AND IGA KIT AND CALIBRATOR AND CONTROL SETS. Classified as System, Test, Anticardiolipin Immunological (product code MID), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Bio-Rad Laboratories (Benicia, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 30, 2012 after a review of 456 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Immunology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.5660 - the FDA immunology 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 Immunology submissions.
