[The results of application of the rapid quantitative assay for fatty acid-binding protein at the onset of acute coronary syndrome].

Fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) appearing in blood within a few hours of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a marker of myocardial necrosis. We estimated the diagnostic value of rapid immunochromatographic test for FABP in patients with ACS and compared it with other cardiomarkers: troponin 1 (Tn1), myoglobin and creatin phosphokinase-MB (CPK-MB). The study included 100 patients aged 61.
