Biochemical results of markers of cardiac injury in brain dead and control animals over 24 h. Upper limit refers to the upper limit of the COBAS reference range. a Creatine kinase MB isoenzyme. b Myoglobin. Both cardiac markers indicated myocardial injury and necrosis. As expected from their biological properties, myoglobin increased faster, but it did not reach statistical significance. CK-MB increased later in brain dead animals and was statistically significant at 24 h
