Abstract
Methods and reagents for early detection of myocardial infarction determine the level of CK-MM.sub.A and the level of the combined CK-MM.sub.A and CK-MM.sub.B in a serum sample. From these measurements, the time of the acute phase can be more accurately determined. Novel anti-(CK-MM.sub.A) antibodies, anti-(CK-MM.sub.B) antibodies, anti-(CK-MM.sub.(A+B)) antibodies, labeled and insolubilized derivatives of these antibodies, labeled CK-MM isoforms, and kits containing one or more of these reagents are also described.
