NT-proBNP Fast Test Kit (Immunofluorescence Assay)

NT-proBNP Fast Test Kit

 (Immunofluorescence Assay)

Intended Use

NT-proBNP Fast Test Kit (Immunofluorescence Assay) is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor (NT-proBNP) in human serum, plasma or whole blood samples. This test is used as an aid in the clinical diagnosis, prognosis and evaluation of Heart Failure (HF).

About NT-proBNP

N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor (NT-proBNP) is secreted from the left cardiac ventricle in response to volume and pressure overload. It's an inactive N-terminal fragment that split from BNP prohormone. NT-proBNP can be used to evaluate heart contractile, diastolic dysfunction, and ventricular segmental wall motion coordination. Besides, it has high sensitivity and negative predictive value (>97%).
