About test

Cystatin C is a non-glycosylated, low molecular weight cysteine proteinase inhibitor that is produced by all nucleated cells and found in body fluids, including serum. Blood levels of cystatin C also equilibrate more quickly than creatinine, and therefore, serum cystatin C may be more accurate than serum creatinine when kidney function is rapidly changing.
