    (a) Identification. A cyclic AMP test system is a device intended to 
measure the level of adenosine 3, 5-monophosphate 
(cyclic AMP) in plasma, urine, and other body fluids. Cyclic AMP 
measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of endocrine 
disorders, including hyperparathyroidism (overactivity of the 
parathyroid gland). Cyclic AMP measurements may also be used in the 
diagnosis and treatment of Graves' disease (a disorder of the thyroid) 
and in the differentiation of causes of hypercalcemia (elevated levels 
of serum calcium.)
    (b) Classification. Class II.
