LOINC description : This protocol provides instructions for drawing, processing and storing blood for
the serum creatinine assay according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination
Survey (NHANES) methods. Creatinine concentration in a participant's serum is measured
according to the Jaffe rate method. The Diabetes Working Group notes that the Serum
Creatinine assay can be done in conjunction with Cystatin C assay (see Diabetes Supplemental
Information Cystatin C) to yield more information about kidney disease. In particular,
comparing and contrasting the polymorphisms associated with each assay can identify
true markers for kidney function (see Kottgen et al., 2009 for more information).;
