The GlycoSens™ Creatine Kinase (CK) Assay Kit provides a robust, high-precision analytical assay platform engineered for quantification of target creatine kinase in varied biological matrices. Featuring a streamlined protocol, it delivers outstanding linearity and operational speed for routine biochemical assays.
The assay relies on the distinct spectroscopic optical characteristics of creatine kinase. Upon reaction with specialized chromogenic reagents, the resulting optical density shifts measured at target wavelengths directly reflect CK content in the sample.

Application Notes
Background
Creatine kinase (CK) acts as an essential biochemical entity within diverse cellular pathways. This enzyme operates as a critical regulatory switch, modulating the activity of downstream signaling proteins. Detailed analysis of this target empowers researchers to monitor disease progression or developmental stages effectively.
Application
Tailored for accurate quantification of creatine kinase (CK) across cell biology, organelle bioenergetics, and intracellular signaling cascades.
Key Features & Advantages
Enhanced Sensitivity; Stable Signal Output; Consistent Batch-to-Batch Performance
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.
