Beschreibung

General description

Creatine is present in vertebrates and helps to supply energy to muscle. In humans and animals, approximately half of creatine originates from food (mainly from fresh meat). Creatine supplementation has been investigated as a possible therapeutic approach for the treatment of muscular, neuromuscular, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases.

Application

The kit is suitable for creatine determination in biological samples (e.g. serum, plasma, urine, saliva etc).

Biochem/physiol Actions

The Creatine Assay Kit is based on enzymatic reactions leading to formation of a pink colored product. The optical density at 570 nm or fluorescence intensity at λEx = 530 nm/λEm = 590 nm is directly proportional to the creatine concentration in the sample.

Features and Benefits

• Linear detection range 4 to 1000 µM (colorimetric) or 0.5 to 50 µM (fluorometric).
• Simple procedure allows for reliable quantitation of creatine within 30 minutes.
