title: Increased creatine kinase activities associated with haemolysis.
abstract: The effect of haemolysis on creatine kinase activity has been investigated. The presence of adenylate kinase released from erythrocytes increases the apparent creatine kinase activity. This can be overcome by the addition of 10 mumol/l of diadenosine pentaphosphate to the reagents.
