“…The stability of CK-MB mass and troponin I have been previously studied (2)(3)(4)(5) but not the stability of troponin T. There has been no study using Arrhenius plots to effectively calculate stability across a range of temperatures. We show that troponin T, troponin I and CK-MB mass all show a rapid decrease in stability between 15 and 20° C. At this temperature, a common environmental temperature encountered within laboratories, maximum diagnostic information will only be obtained if laboratories take this instability into account in their standard operating procedures.…”

“…RF ablation of more myocardial tissue in the atria, such as in PV isolation, is expected to have much higher cTn levels [10][11][12][20][21][22][23][24][25]. Previous clinical studies reported contrasting data, in the setting of AF ablation, on cardiac biomarkers levels after cryoballoon ablation compared to RF ablation [7,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19]26]. Kuhne et al [7] reported higher post procedural cTnT levels in RF group vs. cryoballoon group.…”

“…As several markers have been proven to be useful for diagnosis and evaluation of size of myocardial injury after acute ischemic episode, many authors tried to implement different biomarkers to evaluate and quantify the size of effective ablation lesions [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. On one hand, previous studies have univocally shown humoral biomarkers for myocardial injury to be elevated after radiofrequency (RF) ablation, depending on the amount of energy delivered and the site of ablation [5].…”

“…Specimens for CK analysis should be processed quickly and stored well-sealed and away from light. Enzyme activity in samples from some species can degrade significantly over a few hours if samples are stored at room temperature, in bright light or in loosely capped tubes (Buttery et al, 1992). Creatine kinase total and isoenzyme activity is stable is samples subjected to short-term refrigeration or freezing, although some laboratories evaluating isozymes may prefer fresh samples to avoid any possible differential isoenzyme degradation with storage (Preus et al, 1989; Ercan and Grossman, 2003).…”
