Why it matters
Clinical context
Every quantitative immunoassay depends on well-characterized antigen to set its calibration and check its controls. Having dependable cTnI material in-house is a foundation for OncoFirm’s planned quantitative troponin assay and for consistency from lot to lot.
How it supports the platform
A foundation for quantitative assays
Calibration foundation
Characterized cTnI is intended to anchor calibrator and control lots for the cardiac assays.
Consistency across lots
Using the same reference material across development and pilot lots supports lot-to-lot consistency.
Available to partners
Research and manufacturing partners can inquire about supply and specifications.
