Target Information
Full Name
Creatine
Alternate Names
Creatine
Application Notes
Background
Creatine is an integral element required for robust cellular function and metabolism. Its concentration levels are highly indicative of the functional state and metabolic vigor of the sample. As a result, therefore, profiling its activity serves as a fundamental strategy for exploring complex biological phenomena.
Application
Designed for comprehensive functional analysis of creatine within tissue metabolism profiling, coenzyme utilization studies, and biochemical pathway modeling.
Key Features & Advantages
High Specificity; Stable Reaction; Broad Sample Compatibility
Operating Instructions
1. Pre-Centrifugation of Vials: Prior to opening any reagent vials, perform a brief centrifugation to collect all powder or liquids at the bottom of the tubes.
2. Reagent Equilibration & Mixing: Allow all kit reagents and buffers to equilibrate to room temperature (25 °C) before initiating the assay.
3. Sample Storage: If samples are not assayed immediately, please store at -80 °C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
