NT-proBNP Test Kit

An NT-proBNP Test Kit is a medical diagnostic tool used to detect N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptides in the blood. NT-proBNP is a protein that is released in response to heart muscle stress, and this test can be utilized to diagnose and assess heart failure and other heart-related conditions.

The NT-proBNP assay kit is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay, which can display results within 10 minutes. There is no need for a laboratory analyzer, making this cardiac marker test a cost-effective method for point-of-care use.

AdvaCare Pharma is the manufacturer of NT-proBNP Test Kits. These kits are manufactured in ISO and CE-certified facilities situated in India, China, and the USA. Regular inspections of these facilities are conducted to ensure compliance and quality.

Specimen

Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma specimen is needed for the NT-proBNP test kit. To collect a sample for testing, use standard venipuncture or fingerstick techniques to obtain whole blood, serum, or plasma. For venipuncture, collect 2 drops of blood, while for fingerstick, collect 50 μL of blood. If using serum or plasma samples, ensure they are centrifuged before transferring them to the cassette. Use a capillary tube or dropper to transfer the specimen to the designated area of the cassette. Immediately after, add a drop of the provided buffer dilution to initiate the testing process.

Form

Cassette is a plastic box that houses the test strip within it. It is designed with a specific area where the sample is placed for testing. The cassette also features a window where the results are displayed in the form of lines indicating a positive, negative, or invalid test result.

The test strip inside of the cassette contains reagents that will interact with any NT-proBNP present within the sample.
