Measures Serum and Urine Creatinine.This is a colirometric laboratory reagent which measures the enzyme alkaline phosphatase in the human body by the colorometricmethod.Coral Clinical Systems has answered these concerns of the busy laboratory professional by engineering the “Flexipour”reagent system which comprises of individual liquid stable components, which when mixed together in recommended ratios generate a dependable liquid stable working reagent. Depending on the usage, individual reagents may be poured at one go or flexibly in smaller volumes.Creatinine is the catabolic product of creatinine phosphate which is used by the skeletal muscle. The daily production depends on muscular mass and it is excreted out of the body entirely by the kidneys. Elevated levels are found in renal dysfunction, reduced renal blood flow {shock, dehydration, congestive heart failure) diabetes acromegaly. Decreased levels are found in muscular dystrophy.Picric acid in an alkaline medium reacts with creatinine to form a orange coloured complex with the alkaline picrate. Intensity of the colour formed during the fixed time is directly proportional to the amount of creatinine present in the sample.
