Rapid and Highly Sensitive Detection of Fluorescently-labeled Troponin in Patients Admitted With Chest Pain

Patients with chest pain may have postponed or missed diagnosis of acute coronary events due to relatively late detection of troponin elevation. The study will investigate a new diagnostic method for early detection of even minimal troponin elevation in patients admitted with chest pain.

About this study

Patients with chest pain may have postponed or missed diagnosis of acute coronary events due to relatively late detection of troponin elevation. The study will investigate a new diagnostic method for early detection of even minimal troponin elevation in patients admitted with chest pain.

A new diagnostic method will be applicated in the recent studies.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Treatment and study plan

Blood testing in a newly described method

Other

To exploit detection strategy termed "Magnetic Modulation Biosensing", or MMB) to develop a novel, low-cost platform that can detect biomarkers, such as proteins and specific DNA sequences, rapidly and directly from real samples at very low concentrations.
