 At an alkaline pH, creatinine in the sample reacts with picrate to form a creatinine-picrate complex. The rate of increase in absorbance at 500 nm due to the formation of this complex is directly proportional to the concentration of creatinine in the sample. At an alkaline pH, creatinine in the sample reacts with picrate to form a creatinine-picrate complex.

 Amylase is used primarily in the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis is a reversible inflammation due to enzymatic necrosis. The most common cause of acute pancreatitis is gallstones. The second most common cause is heavy alcohol consumption. Serum amylase elevation and concomitant urine amylase elevation is seen in patients with acute pancreatitis. Amylase is used primarily in the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis.
