K935176 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the IRON TEST. Classified as Photometric Method, Iron (non-heme) (product code JIY), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Em Diagnostic Systems, Inc. (Gibbstown, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on December 16, 1993 after a review of 50 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1410 - 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.
