  FirstVue™ Cardiac troponin I
Troponin I Rapid Test Kit
  
The cardiac troponin I have been established as useful tools in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Troponin I is useful tool in the determination of the source of chest pain.  Cell injury from AMI has been shown to result in a level of blood troponin I above the upper limit of normal in approximately 4-6 hours after the onset of chest pain.  Maximum concentrations are generally observed after 12-24 hours. Troponin I levels remain elevated for up to 14 days1.  The use of troponin I is therefore useful as an aid in the diagnosis of AMI given the different release times and half-lives after myocardial infarction.

Description Products Specs
 
The FirstVue™ Cardiac TnI Test employs a solid-phase chromatographic immunoassay technology to qualitatively detect the elevation of troponin I in human blood samples. When a sample of blood is dispensed into the sample well, red blood cells are removed by the built in separation system. TnI in the specimen makes a complex with the specific dye conjugate and biotinylated anti-troponin I antibody. This complex migrates through the Test area containing immobilized streptavidin. The antibody dye-troponin I-biotinylated antibody complex binds to the immobilized streptavidin in the Test Area. Unbound dye complexes migrate out of the Test Area and are later captured in the Control Area. Visible pinkish-purple bands will appear in the Test and Control (C) Areas if the concentrations of troponin I, are above established cutoff value. If the troponin I concentration in the specimen is 0.6 ng/ml or greater, a band is present in the Test Area. If a band is present only in the Control (C) Area, the test result is read as negative, indicating that the Troponin I concentrations is below the cutoff value. If no band is present in the Control (C) Area, the test is invalid and another test must be run, regardless of the presence or absence of band(s) in the Test Area.

  • Control line (C): a colored Control line indicates the test is COMPLETE and has worked properly.
  • Test line (T): a colored Test line indicates the test is POSITIVE
  • Sample well (S): Add test sample & reagent
