K842669 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the TITAN GEL ISO DOT LDH KIT. Classified as Electrophoretic, Lactate Dehydrogenase Isoenzymes (product code CFE), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Helena Laboratories (Beaumont, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 9, 1984 after a review of 122 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1445 - 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 CFE Electrophoretic, Lactate Dehydrogenase Isoenzymes
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 862.1445
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.
