Issue

During internal studies with the Elecsys® Troponin T hs (high sensitive) and Elecsys® Troponin T hs Stat assays, it was confirmed that for certain k2/k3 EDTA primary tubes, TnT hs results are elevated compared to serum samples when measured from the primary tube after processing the sample according to the tube manufacturers' instructions. This issue does not affect lithium heparin plasma or serum sample tubes.
