Docket No. FDA-2011-N-0003
New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor; Zinc Gluconate
AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for a new animal drug application (NADA) for zinc gluconate injectable solution from Technology Transfer, Inc., to Ark Sciences, Inc.
DATES: This rule is effective December 21, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Steven D. Vaughn, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV-100), Food and Drug Administration, 7520 Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, (240) 276-8300, email: steven.vaughn@fda.hhs.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Technology Transfer, Inc., 33 East Broadway, suite 190, Columbia, MO 65203 has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, NADA 141-217 for NEUTERSOL (zinc gluconate) Injectable Solution to Ark Sciences, Inc., 1101 East 33rd St., suite B304, Baltimore, MD 21218. Accordingly, the Agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR 522.2690 to reflect the transfer of ownership.
Following this change of sponsorship, Technology Transfer, Inc., is no longer the sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, Sec. 510.600 (21 CFR 510.600) is being amended to remove the entries for this firm.
In addition, Ark Sciences, Inc., is not currently listed in the animal drug regulations as a sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, Sec. 510.600 is being amended to add entries for this sponsor.
This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
