Creatinine (Serum) – Beckman Coulter UniCel DxC600

Creatinine (Serum)

Used for the determination of serum creatinine on the Beckman Coulter UniCel DxC600 Synchron Clinical System.

Instrument: Beckman Coulter UniCel DxC600

Specimen Type: Serum

Volume per test: 20uL (min volume 125uL)

Principle:

Creatinine reagent is used to measure the creatinine concentration by a modified rate Jaffé method. The Synchron system automatically proportions the serum sample and reagent volumes into the cuvette at a ratio 1:11. Creatinine combines with picrate in an alkaline solution to form a red-coloured creatinine-picrate complex. The change in absorbance at 520 nm is directly proportional to creatinine in the sample, and is used by the system to calculate and express creatinine concentration.

Testing Range: 27-2210 umol/L
