K211675 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Dasky Disposable Sampling Tube (Model name: VSM02). Classified as Microbial Nucleic Acid Storage And Stabilization Device (product code QBD), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Ningbo Dasky Life Science Co., Ltd. (Ningbo, CN). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 8, 2022 after a review of 433 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Microbiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.2950 - 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: 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 Microbiology submissions.
