Cardiac Biomarker ELISA's
Life Diagnostics, Inc. manufactures ELISA kits for measurement of cardiac troponin-I, myoglobin, fatty acid binding protein (FABP) and myosin light chain-1 (MLC-1) in species including mouse, rat, guinea pig, rabbit, dog pig and monkey. A list of our cardiac
biomarker ELISA's is shown below. Kit details and instructions can be obtained by clicking on the "insert" buttons. Orders may be placed online or by phone, fax or email.
IMPORTANT: Serum or plasma that is to be used for measurement of cardiac biomarkers must not be collected by cardiac puncture or any other method that causes damage to the heart. Cardiac puncture causes release of very high levels of cardiac biomarkers into the blood thereby invalidating study results.
Literature references detailing the use of our cardiac biomarker ELISA kits are listed at the bottom of this page.

The figure below illustrates the utility of our animal troponin-I, myoglobin and FABP kits. It shows the levels of the
respective markers in plasma obtained from a rabbit cardiac ischemia/reperfusion model. Plasma samples were collected before/during ischemia and at various times
after reperfusion. Consistent with clinical findings in humans, it can be seen that the (i) levels of myoglobin and FABP increase prior to those of troponin-I
and (ii) troponin-I levels remain elevated longer than do those of myoglobin and FABP.
