What is it indicated for?

The CRP Vario assay [CRPVa] is for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative immunoturbidimetric determination of C-reactive protein in human serum and plasma (sodium and lithium heparin) using the ARCHITECT c Systems. Measurement of C-reactive protein is useful in the detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury and inflammatory disorders.

CRP Calibrators (including CRP Calibrator Set, CRP Calibrator HS and CRP Calibrator WR):

CRP Calibrators are intended to be used for the calibration of the CRP Vario for the quantitative determination of C-reactive protein in human serum or plasma samples.

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