OverviewBiological relevanceDiagnostic useInterpretationChemistrySee alsoExternal linksSerum creatinine (a blood measurement) is an important indicator of kidney health, because it is an easily measured byproduct of muscle metabolism that is excreted unchanged by the kidneys. Creatinine itself is produced via a biological system involving creatine, phosphocreatine (also known as creatine phosphate), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP, the body's immediate energy supply). Creatine is synthesized primarily in the liver from the methylation of glycocyamine (guanidino ace… Chemical formula: C₄H₇N₃O Molar mass: 113.120 g·mol−1 Melting point: 300 °C (572 °F; 573 K) (decomposes) Solubility in water: 1 part per 12, 90 mg/mL at 20°C
