Description

Creatinine is a product of metabolism of creatine phosphate, a molecule that serves as a rapidly mobilizable reserve of a brain and skeletal muscle. Creatinine is excreted by kidneys with little or no reabsorption. Serum creatinine is the most commonly used indicator of renal function.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Small amounts of creatinine are normally administered with food. In the study oral administration of up to 7g of creatinine does not lead to elevation of creatinine levels in the blood.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
The blood level of creatinine is routinely measured by measurement devices. Method principles are based on a cascade of enzymatic reactions, followed by either photometric or electrochemical detection. Preferred sample types vary from whole blood to serum/plasma or both. Sample volumes range from 1 to 30 μL generally. A normal result for creatinine blood test is 0.7 to 1.3 mg/dL for men and 0.6 to 1.1 mg/dL for women.
