The AFIAS Tn-I Plus Test is a fluorescence immunoassay (FIA) for the quantitative determination of cardiac troponin-I (Tn-I) in human whole blood/serum/plasma. The test is used as an aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). For in vitro diagnostic use only.
Cardiac troponins are currently the most sensitive and specific biochemical markers of myocardial necrosis. There are three types of troponin in cardiac muscle fibres: Troponin-C, -I and -T. Together they contribute to the contraction of cardiac muscle fibres. Clinical measurement of serum Tn-I has become an important tool in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Serum Tn-I is more reliable than creatine kinase as a prognostic marker in people with ischaemic chest pain. National and international scientific organisations have proposed the use of troponins Tn-I and Tn-T when new diagnostic strategies are introduced in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
