Serum creatinine and cystatin C are measured in the assessment of glomerular filtration rate. Biological variation of an analyte is an important determinant of its usefulness. Intra-individual variation in serum creatinine and cystatin C in healthy subjects was determined in this study.
Weekly blood samples were taken from 10 healthy subjects and analysed for creatinine (kinetic Jaffe method) and for cystatin C (by nephelometry).
Intra-individual variations for serum creatinine and cystatin C were 6.1% and 4.55%, respectively. Index of individuality values were similar for the analytes (0.35 for both).
Intra-individual variations for serum creatinine and cystatin C were similar in healthy subjects.
血清肌酐和胱抑素C用于评估肾小球滤过率。分析物的生物学变异是其有用性的重要决定因素。本研究测定了健康受试者血清肌酐和胱抑素C的个体内变异。
从10名健康受试者每周采集血样,分析肌酐(动力学Jaffe法)和胱抑素C(比浊法)。
血清肌酐和胱抑素C的个体内变异分别为6.1%和4.55%。两种分析物的个体性指数值相似(均为0.35)。
健康受试者血清肌酐和胱抑素C的个体内变异相似。
