Myocardial infarction test kit CFA-402

h-FABPserumplasma

Product overview
Heart Fatty Acid-Binding Protein (h-FABP) Rapid Test Device (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) is a rapid visual immunoassay for the qualitative presumptive detection of h-FABP in human whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens. This kit is intended to be used as an aid in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI).

Introduction
Heart-type fatty acid binding protein (h-FABP) is a small cytoplasmic protein (~15 kDa) released from cardiac myocytes after ischemic injury. h-FABP is relatively specific to cardiac muscle and can be detected in blood within 1–3 hours after onset of chest pain, offering potential for early detection of myocardial injury.

Components

• Individually packed test devices
• Disposable pipettes
• Buffer solution
• Package insert

Intended use
Qualitative presumptive detection of h-FABP in whole blood, serum, or plasma as an aid in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI).

Operating steps

• Bring test, specimens, buffer and/or controls to room temperature (15-30°C) before use.
• Remove the test from its sealed pouch and place it on a clean, level surface. Label the test with patient or control identification. Perform the assay within one hour for best results.
• Add the extracted buffer into the sample well. As the test begins to work, color will move across the membrane.
• Wait for the colored band to appear. Read the result at 10 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 20 minutes.
