The products encompassed by this request are intended for in vitro diagnostic use and are intended for use in calibrating the electrodes and cleaning / flushing the sample flow path of the equivalent ABL™ pH/Blood Gas Systems. Radiometer Medical/Copenhagen is the Original Equipment Manufacturer of the analyzers and of the predicate Reagents. The ABL™ pH/Blood Gas Analyzers perform a broad array of blood gas and co-oximetery tests. ALKO manufactures the calibration reagents for the analyzer’s analyte pH, (concentration of hydrogen ions) which is measured by glass membrane electrodes. ALKO also manufactures the Cleaning, Rinse, Hypochlorite and Salt Bridge Solution. These Reagents are intended to be used with equivalent ABL™ pH/Blood Gas Analyzers. As such, ALKO products are intended to serve as direct replacements to like named products manufactured by Radiometer Medical/Copenhagen.

The Calibration Solution, pH 7.4/ 3 and Calibration Solution, pH 6.8/ 4 are intended to provide calibration points for the pH electrode on the analyzer. The Salt Bridge Solution /2 provides a liquid junction through the reference electrode during calibration and measurement. The Cleaning Solution /1, Rinse Solution /5 and Hypochlorite Solution are intended for maintenance of the analyzers electrodes and sample flow path. The products encompassed are to be handled using normal laboratory precautions.
