Zwang and Blijenberg: Ultrafiltration technique for creatinine HPLC assay
نویسندگان
چکیده
The determination of creatinine by HPLC was performed by direct injection of serum onto the column, and after ultrafiltration of the sample, and the results were compared. A modified weak cation exchange column was used for HPLC. This eliminates the protein displacement effect and the Gibbs-Donnan effect, thus permitting a rapid direct analysis. Three of the four ultrafiltration methods gave almost identical analytical results. Regression analyses of the results from direct serum injection versus ultrafiltration showed a bias of 5% on the slope y = 1.050 · χρι1Γβ serum + 1.856, which was in our view solely due to the volume displacement effect of the proteins; correction of each data point by a protein-dependent correction factor resulted in an almost perfect regression line.

New approaches with the Chem-1 creatinine determination.
Three modifications of the Chem-1 determination of serum creatinine were tested. Two different algorithms developed for compensating the interference of bilirubin were compared with the current one by analysing bilirubin-enriched albumin solutions and 82 icteric serum samples. A number of known other interfering substances were also tested. The modification involving parallel bichromatic measur...
متن کاملThe transferability of a candidate reference method for determination of creatinine in serum.
We developed a candidate reference method for the determination of creatinine in serum. For the acceptance of a reference method it is important that it be rigorously validated against a definitive method and that the method can be transferred from one laboratory to another. This study focussed on the transferability and consisted of two parts: introduction and familiarization with the method i...
متن کاملA simplified method for HPLC determination of creatinine in mouse serum.
Mouse models are frequently used to study renal function. However, mouse serum contains chromagens that interfere with standard picric acid-based assays for serum creatinine. Several alternative methods exist for serum creatinine measurements, including assay by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), but only one has been adapted to mouse serum. Creatinine was measured in serum by aceto...
متن کاملAssay of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, the components of Augmentin, in biological fluids with high-performance liquid chromatography.
Augmentin is a new antibacterial formulation comprised of amoxicillin and the beta-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid. In the present paper, the use of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to provide a rapid assay of the components of Augmentin in body fluids is described. Clavulanic acid was assayed by reacting the sample with imidazole, which readily produces a derivative absorbing ...
متن کاملImprovements in creatinine methodology: a critical assessment.
A large evaluation study, analytical as well as clinical, was performed on four published improvements for the determination of creatinine in serum. Two of the methods were based on the Jaffé reaction, the other two were enzymatic methods. Analytically, all four methods showed a similar performance. In the analysis of numerous specimens from advanced care departments, however, the methods perfo...
