Assay kits are used to carry out analyses in a broad scope of applications including the study of targets such as drugs, molecules, disease pathways, chemical elements or compounds, and organisms. They are a routine procedure in the modern pharmaceutical, medical and forensic world as well as research and university laboratories around the globe. Assay kits come with all the necessary reagents, instructions and protocols for fast and efficient processing, allowing for repeatable results.
Cardiovascular assay kits are clinical lab tests used to determine overall cardiovascular health and cardiovascular-related diseases, such as coronary heart disease. When testing a patient's risk for coronary artery disease, the detection levels of key proteins include lipoprotein a (Lp(a)), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), fibrinogen, N-terminal-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), LDL-associated PLA2 (PLAC), urine albumin/creatinine ratio (Ualb/Cr) - to name a few.
