Abstract
Albuminuria is a clinical condition associated with poor kidney function, diagnosed by determining the ratio of albumin to creatinine concentrations in patient urine samples. We present a high-throughput paper spray mass spectrometry (PS-MS) method for simultaneous quantitation of urinary albumin and creatinine for potential diagnosis of albuminuria. Minimal (urine dilution) or no sample preparation is required. The analytical performance of the method was evaluated, achieving linear calibration curves (R2 > 0.99) with little inter-day variability in the slope (N = 5 days), exhibiting coefficient of variation (CV) of 8% and 3% for albumin and creatinine, respectively. LOD and LOQ for albumin were 2.1 and 7.0 mg L-1, and for creatinine were 0.01 and 0.03 mmol L-1, respectively. Intra- and inter-day (N = 5) precisions (%CV) and accuracies (%bias) were <10% and ±11%, respectively, for both analytes. The method was applied to determine albumin-to-creatinine ratios in anonymous human patient urine samples (N = 56), and a correlation of R2 = 0.9744 was achieved between the PS-MS results and validated clinical method results. This work demonstrates the utility of PS-MS to simultaneously quantify a large (albumin) and a small (creatinine) molecule directly in patient urine samples, and its potential as a tool for clinical albuminuria diagnostics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A sample received in the laboratory from a patient receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN) indicated that the patient may have renal dysfunction, but the results were not considered to be reliable enough to report. Investigations using a reference method for measurement of creatinine confirmed positive interference in the creatinine assay and distribution of samples via an External Quality Assessment (EQA) Scheme showed that this positive interference was method dependent. METHODS Residual TPN fluid (Nutriflex Lipid Special) left in the bag after the patient had completed the infusion was collected and added to a patient serum pool in increasing amounts and distributed to different laboratories for analysis of creatinine and glucose through an EQA Scheme. RESULTS Positive interference in a number of different creatinine assays was identified as a result of a component in the TPN fluid. Positive interference from high concentrations of glucose has been demonstrated to be a cause for falsely high results in Jaffe creatinine assays. CONCLUSIONS The concern would be that a sample contaminated with TPN fluid would have both abnormal electrolytes and creatinine concentrations and give the impression that the patient was in renal failure due to analytical interference in the creatinine assay and laboratory staff need to be aware of this problem.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the most common chronic diseases worldwide, with increasing rates of morbidity and mortality. Thus, early detection is essential to prevent severe adverse events and the progression of kidney disease to an end stage. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the most appropriate index to evaluate renal function in both clinical practice and basic medical research. Several animal models have been developed to understand renal disease induction and progression. Specifically, murine models are useful to study the pathogenesis of renal damage, so a reliable determination of GFR is essential to evaluate the progression of CKD. However, as in clinical practise, the estimation of GFR in murine by levels of serum/urine creatinine or cystatin-C could not be accurate and needed other more reliable methods. As an alternative, the measurement of GFR by the clearance of exogenous markers like inulin, sinistrin, 51Cr-EDTA, 99mTc-DTPA, 125I-iothalamate, or iohexol could be performed. Nevertheless, both approaches-estimation or measurement of GFR-have their limitations and a standard method for the GFR determination has not been defined. Altogether, in this review, we aim to give an overview of the current methods for GFR assessment in murine models, describing each methodology and focusing on their advantages and limitations.

Interference of ketone bodies on laboratory creatinine measurement in children with DKA: a call for change in testing practices. Pediatr Nephrol 2022; 37:1347-1353. [PMID: 34757480 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-021-05324-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2021] [Revised: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 09/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The presence of ketone bodies (KBs) can interfere with creatinine (Cr) measurement in both enzymatic and Jaffe methods. Since a high proportion of children hospitalized for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) develop acute kidney injury (AKI), here we investigate whether KB interferences affect the accuracy of pediatric Cr measurement. METHODS Residual patient plasma samples were pooled to make three Cr levels (~ 50, 100, and 250 μM). KBs (acetone, acetoacetate, and β-hydroxybutyrate) were used to spike the pooled samples. All samples were measured for Cr by two enzymatic methods (E1 and E2), two Jaffe methods (J1 and J2), and LC-MS/MS. LC-MS/MS was considered the gold standard, and the % difference in Cr concentration was calculated for each method. RESULTS E1 and E2 were unaffected by the presence of all three KBs. J1 and J2 were unaffected by the presence of β-hydroxybutyrate. The presence of acetone resulted in dose-dependent positive interference in both Jaffe methods, whereas the presence of acetoacetate resulted in dose-dependent positive and negative interference in J1 and J2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Compared to the enzymatic methods, the Jaffe methods were much more susceptible to interference by acetone and acetoacetate, especially at lower Cr values which are commonly seen in pediatrics. Interpretation of changes in Cr concentration between different hospitals when transferring patients can become ambiguous and true kidney function unclear if different methods are used without awareness of method-specific biases. To improve DKA patient care, we recommend standardizing all of the Cr methods to an enzymatic method. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
Background Serum creatinine is a widely used biomarker for evaluating renal function. Sarcosine oxidase enzymatic (SOE) analysis is currently the most widely used method for the detection of creatinine. This method was negatively interfered with by calcium dobesilate, causing pseudo‐reduced results. The aim of this study was to explore a new method to alleviate the negative interference of this drug on creatinine detection. Method We formulated eight drug concentrations and 12 creatinine concentrations from serum. The SOE method, the new method, and the Jaffe method were used for detection in five systems. Creatinine biases were analyzed under the conditions with or without the interference of calcium dobesilate, at consistent or inconsistent creatinine concentrations. Creatinine concentrations were also analyzed at three medical decision levels (MDLs). Results Calcium dobesilate had negative interference in creatinine SOE analysis. With the increase in calcium dobesilate concentrations, the negative bias increases. The new BG method showed an anti‐negative interference effect. In the Roche system, the BG method reduced the negative bias from −71.11% to −16.7%. In the Abbott system, bias was reduced from −45.15% to −2.74%. In the Beckman system, the bias was reduced from −65.36% to −7.58%. In the Siemens system, the bias was reduced from −58.62% to −7.58%. In the Mindray system, the bias was reduced from −36.29% to −6.84%. Conclusion The new method alleviated the negative interference of calcium dobesilate in creatinine SOE detection. The negative bias could be reduced from −60% or −70% to less than −20%.

Abstract
A dispersive liquid-phase microextraction method combined with UV–vis spectrophotometry was utilized to highly selective determination of creatinine in human serum and urine samples. To overcome the interferences in complex matrices, creatinine reacted with 1,4-naphthoquinone-2- potassium sulfonate reagent to produce a red coloured product that could be extracted into a small volume of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([HMIM]PF6) ionic liquid solvent. To increase the sensitivity of the assay, gluconic acid capped silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were used. On addition of Ag NPs to the red coloured extracted product, the solution turned to blue accompanied with a red shift in wavelength around 620 nm that could be detected by the naked eye. The effective variables on the determination of creatinine such as concentration of the reagent, amount of formic and hydrochloric acids, type and volume of the extractant, and concentration of Ag NPs were investigated. Under the optimal conditions, the calibration plot was bimodal with linear ranges from 0.1 to 1.5 µg mL−1 and 1.5 to 105 µg mL−1 creatinine with a limit of detection 0.1 µg mL−1. The relative standard deviation for five measurements at 35 µg mL−1 concentration level was 3.8%. The newly developed assay was used for the determination of creatinine in human serum and urine specimens with satisfactory results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biological assessment is an integral part of the diagnostic process that guides therapeutic management decisions. However, these analyses remain subject to interference from endogenous or exogenous factors, which may alter the results. OBJECTIVE To provide an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the most commonly documented types of interference attributable to medications, to ensure reliable interpretation of test results and better management of patients. DATA SOURCES This comprehensive systematic review of the literature was carried out in 2018. The bibliographic search was carried out in various online databases, specifically PubMed, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar. STUDY SELECTION Only publications in French or English concerning medicinal products for human use were retained. The investigators' examination of drug-related interference with laboratory tests was limited to blood assays (serum or plasma). DATA EXTRACTION An Excel spreadsheet was used to analyze the results. A total of 82 articles were selected. The interferences studied affected 47 biological parameters corresponding to various types of assessment: hormonal, hepatic, and renal. DATA SYNTHESIS The mechanisms reported in the literature identified were analytical (56.9%), physiological (17.82%), and pharmacological (20.11%). The remainder of the mechanisms (5.17%) were not defined. CONCLUSIONS Clinicians should be vigilant in validating and interpreting laboratory test results for patients receiving these types of drugs. Dialogue between clinicians and biological scientists is the best way to avoid unnecessary additional testing, which is often cumbersome and costly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enzymatic assays are among the most common diagnostic tests performed in the clinical laboratory. Enzymatic substrate analysis is most commonly measured using endpoint methods; however, modulating the reaction kinetics allows fine control of the reaction rate, which can be adjusted based on specific monitoring technologies. METHODS We developed and optimized an enzymatic method for measurement of creatinine in plasma, using commonly paired enzymes of creatininase (Crtnnase), creatinase (Crtase), sarcosine oxidase (SOX), ascorbate oxidase (AOX), and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The novel aspect of the assay is that it is fast and uses SOX as the limiting enzyme. The assay performance was assessed with respect to precision, accuracy, and interferences. RESULTS The intrarun %CV (n = 12) was approximately 5% for each concentration tested, with biases ranging from -3 to -9%. The interrun %CV (n = 39) ranged from 5 to 8%, with biases ranging from -2 to -6%. During the accuracy assessment (n = 127), only 4 samples did not meet the minimum acceptability criteria. Minimal interference was observed, except at low creatinine concentrations with elevated creatine. CONCLUSION Our novel and versatile enzymatic assay to measure plasma creatinine using kinetic analysis with SOX as the limiting enzyme is rapid (<2 mins), sensitive, and specific and demonstrates excellent concordance with the laboratory standard. We anticipate this rapid kinetic assay to be compatible with emerging technologies in the field of portable diagnostic devices, such as the usage of silicon photonics to monitor biochemical reactions.

Abstract
Tuberculosis is a health concern worldwide. The anti-tubercular drugs (particularly rifampicin) used for its management offers side effects like acute kidney injury. Creatinine, which is recognised as an important biomarker for the renal function, is commonly estimated with Jaffe's reaction (alkaline picrate reaction). However, interference of Jaffe's reaction with non-creatinine chromogens has been reported. In this context, we have checked the possibility of interference by Rifampicin and Isoniazid at therapeutic concentration with the Jaffe's reaction. Through in-silico study, we have studied the reaction prediction of picric acid with other chemicals/reactant (i.e. Rifampicin, Isoniazid and non-creatinine chromogens) in terms of confidence value. It is observed that the confidence value of reaction prediction between picric acid and INH and Rifampicin is much more than the same of pyruvic acid (non-creatinine chromogen). Further, we have checked the absorbance value of Jaffe's reaction mixture in aqueous media in the presence of both the drugs at 520nm. It is observed that the absorbance of alkaline picric acid increases with an increase in drug concentration. However, the increasing trend of absorbance is much more in the case of rifampicin compared to INH. It appears from our result rifampicin, and isoniazid has the potential to behave as non-creatinine chromogen and can give false positive creatinine results in Jaffe's reaction. Thus, it can cause misdiagnosis in patients consuming these drugs. We recommend study in the biological matrix for further validation of the result.

Abstract
Background:
Coke oven workers are exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with possible genotoxicity and carcinogenicity. Metabolizing enzymes genes and DNA repair genes are suspected to be correlated with the level of DNA damage. They may contribute to variable individual sensitivity to DNA damage induced by PAHs exposure at workplace.
Objective:
To investigate the relationship between biomarkers of PAHs: 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP), DNA adducts, and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in coke oven workers, and to assess the role of cytochrome P2E1 (CYP2E1) gene expression and DNA repairing gene (XRCC1) polymorphism in detecting workers at risk.
Methods:
85 exposed workers and 85 unexposed controls were enrolled into this study. Urinary 1-OHP, 8-OHdG, and BPDE-DNA adduct were measured. CYP2E1 gene expression and genotyping of XRCC1 399 Arg/Gln were evaluated by real-time PCR.
Results:
The median urinary 1-OHP levels (6.3 µmol/mol creatinine), urinary 8-OHdG (7.9 ng/mg creatinine), DNA adducts (6.7 ng/μg DNA) in the exposed group were significantly higher than those in the unexposed group. Carriers of the variant allele (Gln) of XRCC1 had the highest levels of 1-OHP, DNA adducts and 8-OHdG, and the lowest level of CYP2E1 gene expression. In exposed workers, significant positive correlations were found between 1-OHP level and each of the work duration, 8-OHdG, and DNA adducts levels. There was a significant negative correlation between 1-OHP level and CYP2E1 gene expression. Work duration and CYP2E1 gene expression were predictors of DNA adducts level; 1-OHP level and work duration were predictors of urinary 8-OHdG level.
Conclusion:
Workers with higher exposure to PAH were more prone to oxidative DNA damage and cancer development. DNA adducts level reflects the balance between their production by CYP2E1 and elimination by XRCC1 gene.

Abstract
The ability of current renal replacement therapy modalities to achieve rapid solute removal is limited by membrane surface area and blood flow rate. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation offers high blood flow and hemodynamic support that may be harnessed to overcome limitations in traditional renal replacement therapy. Using an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit, we describe a high blood flow, high-efficiency hemofiltration technique using in-line hemofilters (hemoconcentrators) and standard replacement fluid to enhance solute clearance. Using this approach and a total of 5 L of replacement volume per treatment, creatinine (Cr) clearances of 8.3 L/hour and 11.2 L/hour using one and two hemoconcentrators, respectively, were achieved. With use of a high blood flow rate of up to 5 L/min, this hemofiltration technique can potentially offer clearance of 30 times that of continuous renal replacement therapy and of 6 times that of hemodialysis which may expand the ability to remove substances traditionally not considered removable via existing extracorporeal therapies.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that microbial pathogens may induce oxidative stress in infected hosts. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between changes in oxidative stress and intestinal infection with and without antibiotic treatment in animal models. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into three groups: rats infected with Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. enteritidis), rats infected with S. enteritidis followed by norfloxacin treatment, and the control group. To evaluate oxidative stress changes, levels of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxo-Gsn) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dGsn), which represented oxidative damage to RNA and DNA, respectively, were analysed in urine and tissue samples. In urine, the level of 8-oxo-Gsn increased significantly after oral exposure to S. enteritidis (p ≤ 0.001) and returned to baseline after recovery. Notably, norfloxacin treatment decreased the level of 8-oxo-Gsn in urine significantly (p = 0.001). Changes of 8-oxo-Gsn measured in tissues from the small intestine, colon, liver and spleen were consistent with 8-oxo-Gsn measured in urine. Our study suggested that 8-oxo-Gsn in urine may serve as a highly sensitive biomarker for evaluating the severity of S. enteritidis infection and the effectiveness of antibiotic treatment against infection.

Abstract
This study was undertaken to determine the association of four chlorophenol pesticides with cardiometabolic risk factors and obesity in children and adolescents. This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2016 on 242 children and adolescents, aged 6 to 18 years. The concentrations of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP), 2,5-dichlorophenol (2,5-DCP), 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (2,4,5-TCP), and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) in the urine were examined and their association with indices of obesity and cardiometabolic risk factors was determined. Multivariate linear regression and multinomial logistic regression analyses were applied. Overall, 242 participants with mean (SD) ages of 11.3 (2.5) years completed the survey. After adjustment for confounders, a significant positive association was found between body mass index (BMI) z-score and waist circumference (WC) with 2,5-DCP (0.07 (95% CI 0.04, 0.1)) and 0.79 (95% CI 0.54, 1.03), respectively. A significant association of 2,4,5-TCP was only found with WC (0.23 (95% CI 0.0, 0.46), but the relationship with 2,4-DCP was not significant. 2,5-DCP had a significant relationship only with obesity (1.09 (95% CI 1.1, 1.19)), while 2,4-DCP and 2,4,5-TCP showed no significant correlation with overweight or obesity. 2,4-DCP showed a significant positive relationship with high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C). Moreover, 2,5-DCP showed a significant negative relationship only with systolic blood pressure and 2,4,5-TCP had a statistically significant inverse association with total cholesterol and HDL-C (-0.71 (95% CI -0.98, -0.45)). This study suggests potential associations of chlorophenol pesticides with overweight, obesity, lipid profile, and blood pressure in children and adolescents. Longitudinal studies are necessary to assess the clinical impact of these findings.

Abstract
AIM Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common following deliberate self-poisoning with a combination washing powder containing oxalic acid (H2C2O4) and potassium permanganate (KMnO4). Early and rapid increases in serum creatinine (sCr) follow severe poisoning. We investigated the relationship of these increases with direct nephrotoxicity in an ongoing multicenter prospective cohort study in Sri Lanka exploring AKI following poisoning. METHODS Multiple measures of change in kidney function were evaluated in 48 consenting patients who had serial sCr and serum cystatin C (sCysC) data available. RESULTS Thirty-eight (38/48, 79%) patients developed AKI (AKIN criteria). Twenty-eight (58%) had AKIN stage 2 or 3. Initial increases in urine creatinine (uCr) excretion were followed by a substantial loss of renal function. The AKIN stage 2 and 3 (AKIN2/3) group had very rapid rises in sCr (a median of 118% at 24 h and by 400% at 72 h post ingestion). We excluded the possibility that the rapid rise resulted from the assay used or muscle damage. In contrast, the average sCysC increase was 65% by 72 h. CONCLUSIONS In most AKI, sCysC increases to the same extent but more rapidly than sCr, as sCysC has a shorter half-life. This suggests either a reduction in Cystatin C production or, conversely, that the rapid early rise of sCr results from increased production of creatine and creatinine to meet energy demands following severe oxidative stress mediated by H2C2O4 and KMnO4. Increased early creatinine excretion supports the latter explanation, since creatinine excretion usually decreases transiently in AKIN2/3 from other causes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR, or NMR) spectroscopy and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) are commonly used for metabolomics and metal analysis in urine samples. However, creatinine quantification by NMR for the purpose of normalization of urinary metals has not been validated. We assessed the validity of using NMR analysis for creatinine quantification in human urine samples in order to allow normalization of urinary metal concentrations. METHODS NMR and ICP-MS techniques were used to measure metabolite and metal concentrations in urine samples from 10 healthy subjects. For metabolite analysis, two magnetic field strengths (600 and 700MHz) were utilized. In addition, creatinine concentrations were determined by using the Jaffe method. RESULTS Creatinine levels were strongly correlated (R2=0.99) between NMR and Jaffe methods. The NMR spectra were deconvoluted with a target database containing 151 metabolites that are present in urine. A total of 50 metabolites showed good correlation (R2=0.7-1.0) at 600 and 700MHz. Metal concentrations determined after NMR-measured creatinine normalization were comparable to previous reports. CONCLUSIONS NMR analysis provided robust urinary creatinine quantification, and was sufficient for normalization of urinary metal concentrations. We found that NMR-measured creatinine-normalized urinary metal concentrations in our control subjects were similar to general population levels in Canada and the United Kingdom.

Urinary Biomarkers KIM-1 and NGAL for Detection of Chronic Kidney Disease of Uncertain Etiology (CKDu) among Agricultural Communities in Sri Lanka. PLoS Negl Trop Dis 2016; 10:e0004979.

Abstract
Chronic Kidney Disease of uncertain etiology (CKDu) is an emerging epidemic among farming communities in rural Sri Lanka. Victims do not exhibit common causative factors, however, histopathological studies revealed that CKDu is a tubulointerstitial disease. Urine albumin or albumin-creatinine ratio is still being used as a traditional diagnostic tool to identify CKDu, but accuracy and prevalence data generated are questionable. Urinary biomarkers have been used in similar nephropathy and are widely recognised for their sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in determining CKDu and early renal injury. However, these biomarkers have never been used in diagnosing CKDu in Sri Lanka. Male farmers (n = 1734) were recruited from 4 regions in Sri Lanka i.e. Matara and Nuwara Eliya (farming locations with no CKDu prevalence) and two CKDu emerging locations from Hambantota District in Southern Sri Lanka; Angunakolapelessa (EL1) and Bandagiriya (EL2). Albuminuria (ACR ≥ 30mg/g); serum creatinine based estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR); creatinine normalized urinary kidney injury molecule (KIM-1) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were measured. Fourteen new CKDu cases (18%) from EL1 and nine CKDu cases (9%) from EL2 were recognized for the first time from EL1, EL2 locations, which were previously considered as non-endemic of the disease and associated with persistent albuminuria (ACR ≥ 30mg/g Cr). No CKDu cases were identified in non-endemic study locations in Matara (CM) and Nuwara Eliya (CN). Analysis of urinary biomarkers showed urinary KIM-1 and NGAL were significantly higher in new CKDu cases in EL1 and EL2. However, we also reported significantly higher KIM-1 and NGAL in apparently healthy farmers in EL 1 and EL 2 with comparison to both control groups. These observations may indicate possible early renal damage in absence of persistent albuminuria and potential capabilities of urinary KIM-1 and NGAL in early detection of renal injury among farming communities in Southern Sri Lanka.
