K842662 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ANTI-EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS KIT. Classified as Antiserum, Cf, Epstein-barr Virus (product code GNP), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Amico Lab, Inc.. The FDA issued a Cleared decision on December 12, 1985 after a review of 520 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Immunology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.3235 - 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.
