Abstract:
The present invention discloses methods for the detection and monitoring of a condition in a subject using highly sensitive detection of molecules. The invention provides a method for detecting or monitoring a condition in a subject, comprising detecting a first marker in a first sample from the subject and detecting a second marker, wherein the first marker comprises a biomarker, e.g., Cardiac Troponin-I (cTnl) or Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), and wherein the limit of detection of the first marker is less than about 10 pg/ml. The second marker can be a biomarker, physiological marker, a molecular marker or a genetic marker.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, kits, and compositions for fluorescent detection of single biomolecules, e.g. proteins, using highly sensitive fluorescent dyes and a flow cell with one interrogation space for irradiation by focused laser beam. The methods, kits, and compositions are useful in determining concentrations of molecules in samples to levels of 1 femtomolar, 1 attomolar, or lower. The methods, kits, and compositions also allow the determination of concentration over a wide range, e.g., 7-log range, without need for sample dilution.
Abstract:
The invention provides methods, compositions, kits, and systems for the sensitive detection of cardiac troponin, Such methods, compositions, kits, and systems are useful in diagnosis, prognosis, and determination of methods of treatment in conditions that involve release of cardiac troponin.

Abstract:
Un método para determinar un diagnóstico o pronóstico en un individuo que comprende: (i) medir la concentración de troponina cardiaca I (cTnI) a partir de una muestra de suero del individuo, en el que dicha concentración se determina mediante un ensayo de cTnI con un límite de detección para dicha cTnI en dicha muestra de menos de 5 pg/ml; (ii) comparar la concentración medida a una concentración umbral de 7 pg/ml; y (iii) determinar un diagnóstico o pronóstico de infarto de miocardio en el individuo, si la concentración de la muestra es mayor que la concentración umbral; en el que el individuo es un ser humano.
Abstract:
Cardiovascular disease, e.g., congestive heart failure, is often first diagnosed after the onset of clinical symptoms, eliminating potential for early intervention. The invention provides a multi-marker immunoassay, including cardiac pathology and vascular inflammation biomarkers, yielding a more sensitive assay for early detection of CHF in plasma. A panel consisting of cardiac pathology (cTnl, BNP) and vascular inflammation (IL-6, TNFα, IL- 17a) biomarkers provided a sensitivity of 94% for association with CHF.
