K851338 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the DOUBLE ANTIBODY ALBUMIN FOR DETECT MICROALBUMINURI. Classified as Indicator Method, Protein Or Albumin (urinary, Non-quant.) (product code JIR), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Diagnostic Products Corp. (Los Angeles, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 7, 1986 after a review of 369 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1645 - 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. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Chemistry review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
