Product Code DCK C-reactive Protein, Antigen, Antiserum, And Control
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 866.5270
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 Immunology devices follow this clearance model.
