K933315 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the RADIAS B12 ENZYME IMMUNOASSAY. Classified as Radioassay, Vitamin B12 (product code CDD), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Bio-Rad (Hercules, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 25, 1993 after a review of 49 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1810 - 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: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
