K193103 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the NeoBase 2 Non-derivatized MSMS Kit. Classified as System, Test, Amino Acids, Free Carnitines And Acylcarnitines Tandem Mass Spectrometry (product code NQL), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Perkinelmer, Inc. (Waltham, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 7, 2020 after a review of 91 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1055 - 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.

Device Classification

Product Code NQL System, Test, Amino Acids, Free Carnitines And Acylcarnitines Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 862.1055
Definition Amino Acids, Free Carnitines And Acylcarnitines Test System Is Intended For The Measurement And Evaluation Of Amino Acid, Free Carnitine And Acylcarnitine Concentrations From Newborn Whole Blood Filter Paper Samples. The Quantitative Analysis Of The Amino Acids, Free Carnitines And Acylcarnitines And Their Relationship With Each Other Is Intended To Provide Analyte Concentration Profiles That Should Aid In Identifying Elevated Levels Of These Metabolites For Screening Newborns For One Or More Of Several Metabolic Disorders.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Chemistry devices follow this clearance model.
