Urine creatinine

This test measures the amount of creatinine in the blood that is filtered through the kidney. Phosphate creatinine is a source of energy and a form of storage for muscle contraction, which produces creatinine upon release of energy. Most of the creatinine is continuously filtered out by the kidney and is no longer reabsorbed. Creatinine production in human blood can be divided into endogenous and exogenous. Determination of urinary creatinine concentration and serum creatinine concentration is a specific indicator of renal function and can be used as an essential indicator of endogenous creatinine clearance.
