Cardiac Troponin I Assay
Cardiac Troponin I Assay is for the determination of cardiac troponin I in serum or plasma by latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric method.
Cardiac Troponin I Assay is a highly sensitive liquid stable latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric test kit, designed to work on most open clinical chemistry analyzers. Diazyme’s Troponin I Assay provides rapid reliable results at a low reagent cost. Diazyme Cardiac Troponin I Assay is convenient, fast and an accurate alternative to more expensive methods that require a dedicated immunochemistry instrument. The assay offers reliable results across the entirely clinical important reportable range from 0.4 – 10.0 ng/mL troponin I with excellent precision CV% of <2.8% at 2.85 mg/mL.
Cardiac Troponin I Assay is based on a latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay. Cardiac troponin I in the sample binds to the specific anti-troponin I antibodies, which are coated on latex particles, and causes agglutination. The degree of the turbidity caused by agglutination can be measured optically and is proportional to the amount of troponin I in the sample.
