The hazard
According to the FDA, testing a sample with cardiac troponin I concentration greater than 270,000 pg/mL may cause carryover into the hsTnI reagent pack. This carryover occurs predominantly into the particle well of the reagent pack via the probe, contaminating it with the high sample. The extent of the carryover depends on sample concentration and frequency.
