  • Title: Multi-enzyme membrane electrodes for determination of creatinine and creatine in serum.
    Author: Tsuchida T, Yoda K.
    Journal: Clin Chem; 1983 Jan; 29(1):51-5. PubMed ID: 6848282.
    Abstract:
    An enzyme electrode system for the determination of creatinine and creatine was developed by utilizing three enzymes: creatinine amidohydrolase (CA), creatine amidinohydrolase (Cl), and sarcosine oxidase (SO). These enzymes were co-immobilized onto the porous side of a cellulose acetate membrane with asymmetric structure, which has selective permeability to hydrogen peroxide. Two kinds of multi-enzyme electrodes were constructed by combining a polarographic electrode for sensing hydrogen peroxide and an immobilized CA/Cl/SO membrane or Cl/SO membrane for creatinine plus creatine or creatine, respectively. The multi-enzyme electrodes responded linearly up to 100 mg of creatinine and creatine per liter in human serum. Response time was 20 s in the rate method and the detection limit was 1 mg/L. Only 25 microL of serum sample is required. Analytical recoveries, precisions, and correlations with the Jaffé method were excellent, and the multi-enzyme electrodes were sufficiently stable to perform more than 500 assays. No loss of activity of immobilized enzymes was observed after nine months of storage at 4 degrees C in air.
