Stanbio Laboratory

Summary: The Stanbio Syphilis RPR Test No 1170 is a diagnostic tool used for the detection of syphilis. It is primarily used by laboratory technicians and healthcare providers in clinical settings to screen for syphilis infection.

FDA Clearance Information

Pathway 510K
Decision Date May 23, 1988
Product Code GMQ
Device Class Class 2
Evidence 419 studies

The Stanbio Syphilis RPR Test No 1170 was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on May 23, 1988. It is manufactured by Stanbio Laboratory and is classified as a Class 2 device under product code GMQ.

What It Is

The Stanbio Syphilis RPR Test No 1170 is a rapid plasma reagin (RPR) test used to detect non-treponemal antibodies in the blood, indicative of a syphilis infection. The test involves mixing a patient's serum or plasma with a reagent containing carbon particles. If antibodies are present, they cause the particles to clump, indicating a positive result. This test is commonly used for initial syphilis screening due to its simplicity and rapid results.

Clinical Applications

This test is commonly used in clinical laboratories and public health settings for the screening of syphilis, particularly in sexually transmitted infection (STI) clinics. It is utilized by healthcare providers such as infectious disease specialists, general practitioners, and obstetricians, especially in prenatal care to prevent congenital syphilis. The test is suitable for use in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients who are at risk of syphilis infection.

Indications for Use

The FDA indications for this test are for the qualitative detection of reagin antibodies in human serum or plasma. It is used to screen individuals for syphilis infection, particularly in populations at higher risk for STIs.

Practical Considerations

The Stanbio Syphilis RPR Test is typically available in kit form, compatible with standard laboratory equipment. It requires careful handling of reagents and samples to avoid cross-contamination. The test is relatively quick, providing results within minutes, making it practical for high-volume screening settings.
