| Description | Journal: Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis Myoglobin, CK-MB, and Troponin I (cTnI) are cardiac muscle necrosis markers that are useful for detecting acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The Stratus CS (Dade Behring, Inc.) is a discrete fluorimetric immunoassay analyser designed for the determination of the three cardiac markers from a single sample of whole blood or plasma. Overall analytical performances of the Stratus CS provided by Dade Behring were evaluated according to the French Society of Clinical Biology guidelines. Within-run imprecision (n = 20) for the three parameters at three levels gave values under 5%, whereas CVs for between-run imprecision (n = 20) were under 6%. The sensitivities were 0.03 microg/L for cTnI and 0.4 microg/L for CK-MB. Linearities extended from 0-50 microg/L for cTnI, 0-140 microg/L for CK-MB, and 1-900 microg/L for myoglobin. The results, particularly those obtained on whole-blood samples, correlated well with those obtained on Stratus II. We did not find any interference with haemolysis, icterus, or lipemia. The system was very easy to use, and fulfills the requirements for the analysis of the three cardiac markers in patients with acute chest pain in emergency situations. |
