K912551 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ANTI-ENDOMYSIAL ANTIBODY TEST. Classified as Multiple Autoantibodies, Indirect Immunofluorescent, Antigen, Control (product code DBL), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Immco Diagnostics, Inc. (Buffalo, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 9, 1993 after a review of 729 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Immunology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.5660 - 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.
