(a) Images of the microfluidic chip and holder reported in this work. From left to right, holder cover displaying electric and fluidic connections, holder base with the array of magnets and alignment pins, and a microfluidic cartridge. (b) Image of the same device after assembly. (c) Scheme of the different components of the cartridge. The red dashed lines correspond to the fluid path across the chip and over the electrodes for one of the four channels.

This work describes the design and fabrication of a miniaturized flow cell for the chronoamperometric detection of Mieloperoxidase (MPO), a cardiac biomarker. The flow cell consists of a microfluidic cartridge made of a series of cyclo-olefin polymer (COP) and pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) layers, featuring four independent channels and their c...

Background: Peak post-operative cardiac troponin T (cTnT) independently predicts mid- and long-term outcome of cardiac surgery patients. A few studies however have reported two peaks of cTnT over the first 48–72 h following myocardial reperfusion. The aim of the current study was to better understand underlying reasons of these different cTnT profi...
In the present research, the anti-arrhythmic potential of Coriandrum sativum (seeds) was evaluated in BaCl2 induced tachycardia and KCl induced bradycardia in rats. Heart rate and electrocardiogram (ECG) was recorded during the experimental period. The BaCl2 increased the heart rate from 111/min to 157/min while KCL decreased the heart rate from 11...
This communication reports a novel enzymatic Ag-deposition scheme combined with chemical-chemical redox cycling by reduced β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. This novel scheme allows a higher Ag-deposition rate than a scheme using only enzymatic Ag deposition. Therefore, it can be applied for the highly sensitive detection of a cardiac biomarker,...
Aims:
Cardiac biomarkers are a mainstay in diagnosis of cardiovascular disease but their role in cardio-oncology has not yet been systematically evaluated. This meta-analysis aims to determine whether cardiac troponins and (N-terminal pro) brain natriuretic peptide (BNP/NT-proBNP) predict cancer therapy-related left ventricular (LV) dysfunction....
To achieve improved sensitivity in cardiac biomarker detection, a batch incubation magnetic microbead immunoassay was developed and tested on three separate human protein targets: myoglobin, heart-type fatty acid binding protein, and cardiac troponin I. A sandwich immunoassay was performed in a simple micro-centrifuge tube allowing full dispersal o...
