SUMMARY Any new application, to the instrument should be validated to confirm that
results meet the analytical performance of the method.
Creatine kinase (CK) catalyzes the reaction between creatine phosphate
It is recommended to validate periodically the instrument.

PREPARATION
The Reagents are ready-to-use. QUALITY CONTROL
STORAGE AND STABILITY To ensure adequate quality control (QC), each run should include a set of
controls (normal and abnormal) with assayed values handled as unknowns.
Store at 2-8ºC. The Reagents are stable until the expiry date stated on Each laboratory should establish its own Quality Control scheme and
the label. After daily use stored tightly closed and protected from light. corrective actions if controls do not meet the acceptable tolerances.
On the board the reagents are stable 19 days.
Discard the reagent if the blank presents an absorbance over 0.400 at 340 DIAGNOSTIC CHARACTERISTICS

INTERFERENCES Specificity of CK assay is enhanced measurement of its isoenzymes.4-6
Clinical diagnosis should not be made on findings of a single test result,
− Lipemia (intralipid >5 g/L) may affect the results. but should integrate both clinical and laboratory data.
− Bilirubin (< 20 mg/dL), hemoglobin (< 10 g/L), do not interfere.
− Other drugs and substances may interfere3. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
