K874389 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the CRACK-IT CHAP SCREEN. Classified as Thin Layer Chromatography, Cocaine (product code DMN), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Sakers, Inc. (Westville, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 7, 1989 after a review of 469 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Toxicology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.3250 - the FDA toxicology 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 Toxicology submissions.

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 Toxicology devices follow this clearance model.
