    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of quantifying amounts of N-terminal prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in whole blood samples. The methods include contacting detection antibody-NT-proBNP complexes with a plurality of capture antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, that specifically bind to the NT-proBNP molecules of the detection antibody-NT-proBNP complexes to form captured NT-proBNP complexes, and contacting NPs that each comprise a second recognition moiety that binds to the first recognition moiety of the detection antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, of the captured NT-proBNP complexes to form captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes. The methods also include taking images of the captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes to produce imaged captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes using a detection mechanism, and quantifying an amount of NT-proBNP in the sample aliquots using the imaged captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes. Additional methods as well as related devices and systems are also provided.
