K192947 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the AncestryDNA Saliva Collection Kit. Classified as Dna Specimen Collection, Saliva (product code OYJ), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Ancestry Genomics, Inc. (San Francisco, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 13, 2020 after a review of 300 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1675 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry 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. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Chemistry review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
