Cardiac Troponin I ELISA Kit (cTn-I)
INTENDED USE
Human cardiac troponin I ELISA kit is a protocol for measuring in vitro quantitative concentrations of cardiac troponin I (cTn-I) in human cell culture supernatant, plasma, serum, cell lysates and other biological fluids. This assay has a minimum sensitivity limit of 9.38 pg/ml.
BACKGROUND
Troponin I (cTn-I) is an important cardiac and skeletal muscle protein and has been a vital tool for diagnosing heart attack. It belongs to the troponin protein complex and has the ability to bind actin in the thin myofilaments in order to hold the actin-tropomyosin complex together. It consists of 209 amino acids with a molecular weight of 23.9 kDa and it is present within cardiac muscle tissue as a single isoform.
Troponin I is found to differ from other family members because of its 26 amino acids extension in the N-terminal. Multiple reaction which are able to monitor cTnI has identified at least 14 phosphorylation sites and also found that the phosphorylation pattern in these sites can changed in response to disease.
