myoglobinserumplasma

Introduction: This product is used to detect concentration of Myoglobin (Myo) in human serum and plasma. Myoglobin is an iron- and oxygen-binding protein found in the muscle tissue of vertebrates. In human body, myoglobin is only found in the bloodstream after muscle injury. While muscle injury occurs, myoglobin could be released into blood rapidly and exceeds the normal level in about 1 hour. Thus myoglobin is a sensitive marker for muscle injury, making it a potential marker for heart attack in patients with chest pain. However, elevated myoglobin has low specificity for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and thus CK-MB, cardiac Troponin, ECG, and clinical signs should be taken into account to make the diagnosis[1- 3]. 1.
