What is it indicated for?

The UBIiT-IR300 Infrared Spectrometry System is an in vitro diagnostic device designed to measure changes in '*CO: content in breath CO. gas by infrared spectroscopic analysis. ~ The system consists of the UBIiT-IR800 Infrared Spectrophotometer, the UBiT-AS10 Autosampler, and Otsuka Breath Collection Bags.

The UBiT-IR300 Infrared Spectrometry System is intended for use in conjunction with commercially available Meretek '*C-urea breath tests for the detection of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylors) infection. The UBiT-IR800 System is suitable for use in both clinical laboratory and point-of-care settings.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
