Abstract
CREATININE is commonly determined in biological fluids by various modifications of the Jaffe reaction. The method is recognized as being non-specific and must be applied with caution unless there is a large excess of creatinine present over interfering substances. The specificity of the method has been greatly improved by Miller and Dubos1.
