to immobilize aminosilylated glass beads based biosensor for ammonia/ammonium and creatinine detection in urine[1]
in creating creatinine-sensing membrane for biophysical studies[2]
to investigate the bioelectronic tongue for the simultaneous determination of urea, creatinine and alkaline ions in clinical samples[3]
Creatinine deiminase has been used in a study to assess the application of a creatinine-sensitive biosensor for hemodialysis control. Creatinine deiminase has also been used in a study to investigate the bioelectronic tongue for the simultaneous determination of urea, creatinine and alkaline ions in clinical samples.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Creatinine deiminase catalyzes the hydrolysis of creatinine to methylhydantoine and ammonia.[1]
One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of creatinine to N-methylhydantoin and NH3 per min at pH 7.5 at 37 °C in a coupled system with L-glutamic dehydrogenase.
Physical form
Lyophilized powder containing mannitol as stabilizer
Urea and creatinine biosensors based on urease and creatinine deiminase, respectively, covalently immobilized onto ammonium selective electrodes, were included in an array together with sensors sensitive to ammonium, potassium and sodium. Generic sensors to alkaline ions were also included. All
A precise and sensitive working microflow titration procedure was developed to determine creatinine and ammonia in urine samples. This procedure is based on enzymatic conversion of creatinine, gas diffusional membrane separation of the released ammonia into an acid acceptor stream
In this study, the oxazine 170 perchlorate (O17)-ethylcellulose (EC) membrane was successfully exploited for the fabrication of creatine- and creatinine-sensing membranes. The sensing membrane exhibited a double layer of O17-EC membrane and a layer of enzyme(s) entrapped in the EC
A patient with false elevation of serum creatinine level due to 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) is reported. 5-FC interferes with the enzymatic method used for creatinine determination in the Kodak Ektachem analyzer. Clinicians should be aware of the potential for spurious azotemia

Creatinine iminohydrolase (EC 3.5.4.21) quantitatively releases ammonia from flucytosine (5FC) as well as from creatinine. Using 39 sera from eight patients receiving the combination of amphotericin B with 5FC, we demonstrated that this rapid enzymatic reaction provides a valid measure
