title: Creatine release from the isolated perfused rat heart.
abstract: Creatine release from the isolated perfused rat heart decreases during the first 40 min of perfusion to a constant rate which is maintained for at least a further 50 min. Reoxygenation after a period of 15 min of anoxia is accompanied by an increase in creatine release. The highest rate of release occurs during preperfusion after the excision of the heart. These losses might contribute to impairment of function after anoxia.
