To my knowledge Bayer does not offer a TnT, only a TnI

THAT IS WRONG !!!

0.1   is the M.I. cutoff for TnT and NOT TnI !

 

I suspect that the 0.1 value may be the lowest claimed detectable for TnI

 

Read ALL the small print, not just the box.

 

I never trust what it says on the box : I keep seeing "Open Other End " - and it never is !

with best wishes

I interpret it as any TnI value of 0.1 ug/L and above indicates myocardial damage, and any value < 0.1 ug/L does not indicate myocardial damage.

Please - how do you interpret the phrase, "Troponin I was analysed on an
Advia Centaur: quoted cut-off value 0.10 ug/L"
