Application Field:
The Emergency Department, the Laboratory Department, the Internal Cardiology Department,
the Department of Cardiac Surgery, the community medical institution, and on-site emergency
treatment;Providing a fast bedside diagnosis for the patient.
Principle of the Procedure:
One high specific and sensitive NT-proBNP monoclonal antibody and one NT-proBNP polyclonal
antibody are used for the test strips. The monoclonal antibody is biotinylated, gold-labelled and
coated on the polyester film, and the polyclonal antibody is fixed on the test lines. The antibodies
on the test lines form sandwich complexes with any NT-proBNP in the blood sample. The sample
passes through the detection zone, in which the sandwich complexes gather along a line,
appearing as a purplish red streak (the test or signal line). Excess gold-labelled antibodies gather
along the control line,signaling visually that the test is valid.The intensity of the test line increases
in proportion to the NT-proBNP concentration.
