Terms of Reference
- Development of a candidate secondary reference measurement
procedure and candidate secondary reference material for cardiac
troponin I (cTnI)
- Testing for cTnI standardization and clinical validation by
comparison with validated commercial assays in a round robin
study
Current Projects
- Establishment of a candidate secondary reference immunoassay
measurement procedure for cTnI based on an optimal combination of
monoclonal antibodies, which have been characterized by epitope
mapping and affinity binding studies, and ELISA methodology (Phase
I)
- Preparation of a secondary reference material for cTnI
consisting of three cTnIpositive serum pools (Phase 2)
- Validation of cTnI standardization through a round robin after
a value transfer using the secondary reference material as common
calibrator (Phase 3)
