A METHOD AND A KIT FOR DETECTION OF ACUTE CORONARY SYNDROME BASED ON CONCENTRATION OF UNBOUND IRON PRESENT IN A BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE

摘要

A method for detecting concentration of unbound iron in a biological sample is disclosed in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. One or more reagents of a set of reagents are treated with a chelating resin and then added to the biological sample and a set of standard solutions to produce a predetermined pH in the biological sample and the set of standard solutions. Further, addition of the set of reagents to the biological sample and a standard solution of the set of standard solutions produces a sample color in the biological sample and a standard color in the standard solution. The concentration of the unbound iron in the biological sample is detected based on a comparison between the sample color and one or more standard colors corresponding to one or more standard solutions of the set of standard solutions. A method and a kit for detection of ACS are also disclosed.
