| Description | Creatine Kinase (CK) is primarily found in tissues such as the heart, muscle, and brain. It reversibly catalyzes the transphosphorylation reaction between creatine and ATP, playing a vital role in energy transfer, muscle contraction, and ATP regeneration. It is a crucial clinical indicator for Creatine Kinase (CK) is primarily found in tissues such as the heart, muscle, and brain. It reversibly catalyzes the transphosphorylation reaction between creatine and ATP, playing a vital role in energy transfer, muscle contraction, and ATP regeneration. It is a crucial clinical indicator for diagnosing heart and brain diseases.Assay PrincipleCK catalyzes the conversion of Phosphocreatine and ADP to Creatine and ATP. Hexokinase then catalyzes the reaction of ATP with Glucose to form Glucose-6-Phosphate (G6P). Subsequently, Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PDH) catalyzes the oxidation of G6P with NADP⁺ to generate NADPH, leading to an increase in absorbance at 340 nm.

Dissolve in 10 mL distilled water before use.Working Solution: Prepare immediately before use by mixing Reagent 1 and Reagent 2 at a 1:1 ratio. Incubate the Working Solution at 37°C for 2 minutes prior to use.Required Materials and Equipment (Not Provided)Balance, refrigerated centrifuge, constant temperature water bath, microplate reader, 96-well plate, and distilled water.Crude Enzyme Extraction:Tissue Samples: Homogenize the tissue on ice in Extraction Buffer at a ratio of 1:5-10 (w/v) (e.g., weigh ~0.1g tissue, add 1 mL Extraction Buffer). Centrifuge the homogenate at 10,000 g, 4°C for 15 min. Collect the supernatant for assay.Serum Samples: assay directly.Assay Procedure:Preheat the microplate reader for at least 30 minutes. Set the wavelength to 340 nm.Pipette 40 µl of sample and 60 µl of distilled water into a well of the 96-well plate. Add 100 µl of the pre-warmed (37°C) Working Solution. Mix immediately and record the initial absorbance (A₁) and the absorbance after exactly 1 minute (A₂) at 37°C. Calculate ΔA = A₂ - A₁.CK Enzyme Activity Calculation:General Parameters:ε (NADPH molar extinction coefficient) = 6220 L/mol/cmd (Light path for 96-well plate) = 0.5 cmVₜₒₜₐₗ (Total reaction volume) = 0.2 mL (200 µL)Vₛₐₘₚₗₑ (Sample volume in reaction) = 0.04 mL (40 µL)T (Reaction time) = 1 minCpr (Sample protein concentration, mg/mL)W (Sample mass, g)Vₛₐₘₚₗₑₜₒₜₐₗ (Total extract volume) = Assumed 1 mL for tissue calculations1. Based on Tissue Protein Content:Definition: One unit of activity is defined as the amount of enzyme that generates 1 nmol of NADPH per minute per mg of protein at 37°C, pH 7.0.Calculation:CK Activity (nmol/min/mg prot) = [ΔA / (ε × d)] × Vₜₒₜₐₗ ÷ (Vₛₐₘₚₗₑ × Cpr) ÷ TSimplified Formula: CK (nmol/min/mg prot) = 1608 × ΔA ÷ Cpr2. Based on Tissue Sample Mass:Definition: One unit of activity is defined as the amount of enzyme that generates 1 nmol of NADPH per minute per gram of fresh tissue at 37°C, pH 7.0.Calculation:CK Activity (nmol/min/g fresh weight) = [ΔA / (ε × d)] × Vₜₒₜₐₗ ÷ (Vₛₐₘₚₗₑ / Vₛₐₘₚₗₑₜₒₜₐₗ × W) ÷ TSimplified Formula: CK (nmol/min/g fresh weight) = 1608 × ΔA ÷ W3. Based on Serum:Definition: One unit of activity is defined as the amount of enzyme that generates 1 nmol of NADPH per minute per liter of serum at 37°C, pH 7.0.Calculation:CK Activity (nmol/min/L) = [ΔA / (ε × d)] × Vₜₒₜₐₗ ÷ Vₛₐₘₚₗₑ ÷ TSimplified Formula: CK (nmol/min/L) = 1608 × ΔANotesBefore formal assay, it is essential to perform a pilot test with 2-3 samples expected to have significant differences in activity.The prepared Working Solution is stable at 4°C for 7 days. However, it is recommended to use it as soon as possible after preparation.CK in serum is unstable. Determine the activity as soon as possible after sample collection. It can be stored protected from light at 4°C for up to 24 hours.Sample protein content needs to be determined separately. A BCA Protein Assay Kit can be used for this purpose.If the OD value is greater than 0.5, dilute the sample appropriately with Extraction Buffer and account for the dilution factor (D) in the calculation formulas (e.g., 1608 × ΔA × D ÷ Cpr)...

The Kit contains AnteoBind™activated 200 nm magnetic particles that give you increased antibody binding capacity and functionality, while the included blocking buffer decreases background noise.Reduce reagent preparation time; remove traditional surface preparation steps such as EDC and replace these steps with the 200 nm pre-activated magnetic particles provided. This Kit reduces aggregation and gives you the freedom and ability to produce multifunctional particles for diverse applications, including dual labelling.For lateral flow tests, magnetic particles are easier to handle than gold. Magnetic separation removes the need to perform centrifugation and filtration concentration. Magnetic particles can provide greater sensitivity than gold during lateral flow tests.Binding Capacity and Polydisperity IndexBinding Capacity: > 50 µg IgG/mgPolydispersity Index (PdI)*: < 0.3* The Polydispersity Index (PdI) is dimensionless and determined using Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS). The PdI is scaled such that values smaller than 0.05 are rarely seen and values greater than 0.7 indicate that the sample has a very broad size distribution and poor monodispersity.Particle based Immunoassays, Lateral Flow, Bioseparations and Immunoprecipitation...
