Antigen, Ha (Including Ha Control), Rubella
Microbiology
The Rubella HA (Hemagglutination) Antigen (Including HA Control) is a viral antigen reagent used in hemagglutination inhibition tests to detect rubella virus antibodies in patient serum, supporting immunity assessment and diagnosis of rubella infection. It is classified as FDA Class 2 (moderate risk) and requires 510(k) premarket clearance. The product code is GOL, regulated under 21 CFR 866.3510 in the Microbiology specialty. This device is eligible for third-party 510(k) review.

A predicate device is a legally marketed device that a new 510(k) applicant uses to demonstrate substantial equivalence. The FDA's 510(k) pathway requires manufacturers to show that their device has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as one or more predicate devices already cleared for commercial distribution.
Finding the right predicate is a critical step in 510(k) strategy. Manufacturers typically search for cleared devices with the same FDA product code, which groups devices by their intended use and regulatory classification. This tool helps you identify potential predicates by browsing all clearances within a product code.
Note that predicate devices must be legally marketed — they cannot be devices that were cleared but never commercialized, or devices subject to a mandatory recall. The determination of substantial equivalence considers intended use, technological characteristics, and performance data.
