About This Test
The qualitative Troponin-T test is a rapid immunochromatographic assay designed to detect the presence (positive/negative) of cardiac Troponin-T in human blood or serum, providing a quick bedside indicator of cardiac injury. It is released into the bloodstream when heart muscle (myocardium) is damaged, most notably during an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
It is used in conjunction with other indicators such as the troponin I, Ck, LDH, SGOT.
Positive result indicates test threshold of 0.1ng/ml Negative result does not rule out a cardiac infarction of myocardial cell damage with certainty.

Yes. We use fully automated machines that ensure accurate and consistent results.
Yes — Troponin T (Trop T) can detect early health problems, but its use is very specific to heart injury rather than general disease screening. It is an early and sensitive marker for heart muscle damage.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
