K792559 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the FIAX TEST KIT FOR HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS. Classified as Antisera, Fluorescent, Herpesvirus Hominis 1,2 (product code GQL), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Intl. Diagnostic Technology (Walker, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 3, 1980 after a review of 83 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.3305 - 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: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
