NT-proBNP FIA TestCE | CTK-F3050

The N-terminal-pro hormone BNP (NT-proBNP) Fluorescence ImmunoAssay (FIA) Test is a lateral flow chromatographic fluorescence immunoassay for the quantitative detection of NT-proBNP in human serum, plasma or whole blood, using the RaFIA system. This test is intended for in vitro diagnostic use only.

NT-proBNP was advocated as a beneficial biomarker for evaluating heart failure by the American Association for Clinical Chemistry in 2007 and is allowed to be used for diagnosis and evaluation of heart failure and acute coronary syndrome by the USFDA. There is also evidence suggesting that NT-proBNP has prognostic value in evaluating the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and the mortality of stable coronary artery disease.

The NT-proBNP FIA Test was developed to detect circulating NT-proBNP in serum, plasma and whole blood within 15 minutes, without the use of cumbersome laboratory equipment, and requiring minimally trained laboratory personnel.
