Can a radioimmunoassay for cardiac myosin light chains detect acute experimental myocardial infarction in dogs?
A novel radioimmunoassay for cardiac myosin light chains can detect experimental myocardial infarction in dogs as early as 6 hours post-occlusion and 1 hour post-reperfusion.
Khaw et al. (1978) studied this question.
