Intended Use Statement
•
The ELx808 is an absorbance microplate reader. The performance characteristics of the
data reduction software have not been established with any laboratory diagnostic
assay. The user must evaluate this instrument and (if used) PC-based software in
conjunction with their specific assay(s). This evaluation must include the confirmation
that performance characteristics for the specific assay(s) are met.
•
If the instrument has an “IVD” label it may be used for clinical and non-clinical
purposes, including research and development. If there is no such label the instrument
may only be used for research and development or other non-clinical purposes.
Quality Control
It is considered good laboratory practice to run laboratory samples according to instruc-
tions and specific recommendations included in the assay package insert for the test to be
conducted. Failure to conduct Quality Control checks could result in erroneous test data.
