Methods Comparison
A comparison between Spectrum Diagnostics CK reagent and a
commercial reagent of the same methodology was performed on 20
human sera. A correlation of 0.983 was obtained.
Sensitivity
When run as recommended, the minimum detection limit of the
assay is 1 U/L.
Linearity
The reaction is linear up to CK concentration of 2000 U/l; specimens
showing higher concentration should be diluted 1+2 using physiological
saline and repeat the assay (result×3).
Interferences:
No interferences were observed with haemoglobin until 5 g/L, bilirubin
20 mg/dL and triglycerides 7 mmol/L. Other drugs and substances
may interfere3,4.
