AMS CK-NAK

The small quantity of creatine kinase (CK) present within the blood primarily comes from skeletal muscle. CK is additionally found in striated muscle, brain and heart tissues. The CK concentration levels within the blood increase as a result of harm to bodily muscle or interferences with the muscle energy production like myositis, that is inflammation of the muscles.

What is the CK-NAC assay used for?
The Randox CK-NAC reagent is used for the activity of CK in serum or plasma to assess the extent of muscle harm and to watch treatment.

The determination of CK-NAC activity in plasma or bodily fluid provides a sensitive marker for the detection of muscle disease; and is additionally helpful to assess the extent of severe muscle trauma, crush injuries, burns or electrocution, and therefore the probability of developing rhabdomyolysis.

The determination of CK exploitation creatine phosphate and adenosine‑5’‑diphosphate (ADP) as substrates instead of creatine and adenosine‑5’‑triphosphate (ATP) has many benefits in test performance because it permits for a quicker reaction rate resulting in greater sensitivity. little sample volumes are used and sample blanks aren’t needed.

The ultraviolet radiation method used is an optimized standard methodology according to the recommendations of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Klinische Chemie.
