Cardiac Troponin I Rapid Test Kit (GICA) 

The Cardiac Troponin I Rapid Test Kit (GICA) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human Cardiac Troponin I in whole blood, serum or plasma as an aid in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction.

Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) is a protein found in cardiac muscle with a molecular weight of 22.5 kDa. Troponin I is part of a three subunit complex comprising of Troponin T and Troponin C. Along with tropomyosin, this structural complex forms the main component that regulates the calcium sensitive ATPase activity of actomyosin in striated skeletal and cardiac muscle.After cardiac injury occurs, Troponin I is released into the blood 4-6 hours after the onset of pain. Because of its high specificity and sensitivity in the myocardial tissue, Troponin I has recently become the most preferred biomarker for myocardial infarction.
