PRODUCT NAME:
Product Name: High-sensitivity Troponin T CLIA Kit (Chemiluminescence Immunoassay)
Abbreviation: hs-cTnT
INTENDED USE:
High-sensitivity Troponin T CLIA Kit (Chemiluminescence Immunoassay) is an in vitro diagnostic
test for the quantitative detection of Troponin T (cTnT) in human serum and plasma specimen. This
product is intended to be used by laboratory professional workers only. This kit is used for auxiliary
diagnosis. Results must be combined with clinical observations, patient history, other laboratory
parameters, and epidemiological information for comprehensive analysis.
Cardiac troponin T is a contractile protein present in the myocardium. It is one of three subunits of
the troponin complex (I, T, C), and a protein that regulates striated muscle contraction.
The cTnT in myocardium (layer) is not the same as the TnT in skeletal muscle. It is a tissue-specific
and high-sensitive marker. Multiple research data shows that it is released 3-4 hours after
myocardial infarction and lasts for about 2 weeks. Low concentrations of cTnT are independent
predictors of cardiovascular events (including initial and recurrent atrial fibrillation). In different
situations, MYO, CK-MB, NT-proBNP and CRP can be combined for disease diagnosis and
prognosis.
