A lot shall consist of the items produced by one manufacturer, at one plant, from the same materials, under essentially the same manufacturing conditions, and at essentially the same time. At each change in assay strip lot, a new lot identification shall be assigned. Lot number format shall be in accordance with MIL-STD-1168. The contractor shall also record the lot numbers of the other components used in each lot of carriers produced.

b. Sampling. Attribute type normal inspection sampling in MIL-STD-1916 shall be used.

c. Inspection characteristic. Three classes of characteristics are covered in this QAP. These are: critical characteristics, major characteristics, and minor characteristics, as defined in

MIL-STD-1916.

d. Inspection. Inspection shall consist of examination and test of all the characteristics contained in the Classification of Characteristics of this QAP. Every item in the lot shall be inspected for critical and selected major characteristics. If an item is found that does not conform to a characteristic inspected 100%, the non-conforming item shall be removed from the lot. For each of the other characteristics in Part III, failure of any sample item to conform to the characteristic shall be cause for rejection of the lot represented. The following inspections apply to each of the 4 configurations.

NUMBER CHARACTERISTIC TO COMPLY WITH

401 Material: Top, Assay Strip Carrier - 5-15-19325/32011935 Lexan™ thermoplastic 402 Material: Membrane, Carrier Sample Well - 5-15-19326/32011936 403 Material: Desiccant strip – silica gel 5-15-19328/32014013

Inspection equipment. Inspection equipment used to perform the examinations and tests in this QAP should be designed, documented and maintained by the contractor using ISO 10012 as guidance, including any fixtures necessary to accommodate the test procedures.

Inspection equipment should incorporate the appropriate measurement capability, precision and accuracy to assure rejection of nonconforming product. Equivalent inspection equipment standards may be accepted when such alternative(s) provide an equivalent or better level of quality, and provided they have been described in a written proposal, which has been approved by the Government.

PART IV. PERFORMANCE/DESTRUCTIVE TEST

1. Intended use. The carrier box assemblies are boxes which contain trays of carrier assemblies. The carrier box assemblies are used by and interface with the Identifier subsystem of the Joint Biological Point Detection System (JBPDS.) The assay strips within each carrier assembly are inoculated by a liquid, optically scanned by the Identifier and analyzed to determine the presence or absence of specific biological warfare agents.

2. Box Carrier Assembly Performance test. The purpose of this Performance test is to insure the assay strip is still functioning after being assembled into the carrier assembly.

It also insures the fit and interface between the box carrier assembly and the JBPDS system. This test is required for the First Article Test only and is not required for the production lot acceptance test. However, if one or more components in the production lot changes since first article inspection, or if the manufacturer, materials or process associated with the component(s) changes, this Performance Test will need to be re-verified.

2.1 Flow Rate. Allow dilution buffer and carriers to reach 35-400 C before conducting test. Test is conducted by inserting the carrier box assembly into the JBPDS and inoculating each assay trip on the carrier with 115µL of dilution buffer on sample wells. Assay shall run within 15 min ± 15 seconds.

2.2 Visual Control Line. Allow dilution buffer and carriers to reach 35-400 C before conducting test. Test is conducted by inserting the carrier box assembly into the JBPDS and inoculating each assay trip on the carrier with 115µL of dilution buffer on sample wells. The optical density of the control line shall be 0.175.
