Troponin-I

Troponin-I

The cardiac-specific isoform of Troponin-I (cTnl) has been known as a marker of heart damage and myocardial cell death, due to myocardial infarction, for just over 10 years. Troponin-I (cTnl, 24kDA) is the inhibitory subunit of the Troponin complex of striated muscle. Most of the Troponin (I & T) proteins are located within the contractile apparatus of the striated muscle.

The Fortress Diagnostics Troponin-I kit is a colorimetric enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the quantitative determination of circulating Troponin-I concentrations in human serum.
