What does the Creatinine, Plasma test measure?

Creatinine, Plasma (Creat) is a clinical biomarker used in metabolic-diabetes assessment. Creatinine is a non-enzymatic breakdown product of muscle creatine phosphate, produced at a relatively constant rate proportional to muscle mass, freely filtered at the glomerulus with minimal tubular reabsorption, and minimally secreted. It is measured in 1 laboratory test on BiomarkersLabs.com.

Reference Range: Approximately 53–115 µmol/L (0.6–1.3 mg/dL) in adults, sex- and muscle-mass-dependent.
Units: µmol/L, mg/dL
Measured In: 1 test

Functional medicine optimalWithin sex- and age-specific reference limits; eGFR ≥90 mL/min/1.73 m² is considered normal renal function in the absence of other kidney damage markers.

What is Creatinine, Plasma?

Creatinine is a non-enzymatic breakdown product of muscle creatine phosphate, produced at a relatively constant rate proportional to muscle mass, freely filtered at the glomerulus with minimal tubular reabsorption, and minimally secreted. Its plasma concentration is inversely related to glomerular filtration rate.

Why is Creatinine, Plasma measured?

Creatinine is the primary marker for estimating glomerular filtration rate via the CKD-EPI or MDRD equations; rising creatinine signals declining renal function. Acute kidney injury criteria incorporate absolute and relative increases; chronic kidney disease staging relies on estimated GFR derived from creatinine, age, sex, and ethnicity.
