A diagrammatic illustrating the step-by-step of the analytical workflow for the SI-traceable quantification of cTnI in human serum. Step 1: the calibration standards and QC materials were prepared using cTnI-free serum by incorporating the NIST SRM 2921 and SIL-cTnI. Step 2: patient serum samples were prepared using cTnI positive serum samples by incorporating SIL-cTnI. Step 3: all samples were subjected immunoaffinity enrichment, followed by LC–MS/MS analysis. Step 4: calibration curves were established for the TLLLQIAK and NITEIADLTQK peptides to determine the concentration of cTnI. Step 5: to determine the uncertainty, all sources of uncertainty from steps 1 to 4 were combined
