1. Standards and Samples. Equilibrate all components to room temperature. Briefly centrifuge tubes before opening. Prepare a 1000 µMcreatine Standard Premix by mixing 15 µL of the 20 mM Standard and 285 µL dH2O. Transfer 10 µL standards into separate wells of a clear, flat-bottom 96- well plate. Transfer 10 µL of each sample into two separate wells, one serving as a sample blank well (RBLANK) and one as a sample well (RSAMPLE).
2. Enzyme Reaction. For each standard and sample well, prepare Working Reagent by mixing 90 µL Assay Buffer, 1 µL Enzyme A, 1 µL Enzyme B and 1 µL Dye Reagent. Add 90 µL Working Reagent to the four Standards and the Sample Wells. Prepare blank control reagent by mixing 90 µL Assay Buffer, 1 µL Enzyme B and 1 µL Dye Reagent (i.e. no Enzyme A). Add 90 µL Blank control reagent only to the Sample Blank Wells. Tap plate to mix. Incubate 30 min at room temperature.
3. Read OD570nm. Fluorimetric Procedure The fluorimetric procedure is the same as for the colorimetric assay, except that (1) the detection range is up to 50 µMcreatine and (2) a black, flat-bottom 96-well plate is used. Creatine standards of 0, 15, 30 and 50 µMare prepared. After incubation for 30 min at room temperature, read fluorescence intensity at ex = 530 nm and em = 590 nm. - 样品制备

SH-group containing reagents (e.g. mercaptoethanol, DTT) and EDTA may interfere with this assay and should be avoided in sample preparation. Solid samples can be extracted by homogenization in distilled water (dH2O) and filtered or centrifuged. Liquid samples (e.g. serum, plasma and urine) can be assayed directly.
- 结果分析
-
Subtract the standard values from the blank value (#4) and plot the OD or F against standard concentrations. Note: if the calculated creatine concentration is higher than 1000 µM in the colorimetric assay or 50 µM in the fluorimetric assay, dilute sample in dH2O and repeat assay. Multiply result by the dilution factor n.
Conversions: 1000 µM creatine equals 13.1 mg/dL or 131 ppm. - 限制

Quantitative determination of creatine by colorimetric (570nm) or fluorimetric (530nm/590nm) methods.
Procedure: 30 min.
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. Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring creatine are popular in research and drug discovery. This creatine assay is based on enzymatic reactions leading to formation of a pink colored product. The optical density at 570 nm or fluorescence intensity at gamma em/ex = 590/530 nm is directly proportional to the creatine concentration in the sample.
