Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to harness energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy.
In some cases the test may be used to detect muscle conditions such as polymyositis (condition characterized by the inflammation of muscles) or to estimate the degree of muscle damage. Stroke and other forms of brain damage can also result in an elevated creatine kinase level.
When there is any muscle damage or degeneration the contents from the muscle cells break open and enter the bloodstream. As most of the CPK is found in the body, any increase found in the blood level during a creatine kinase blood test is indicative of muscle damage.A creatine kinase blood test is used to help diagnose the following: 1  It helps in the diagnosis of heart attacks. 2  It can be used to appraise the cause of chest pain.hen there is any muscle damage or degeneration the contents from the muscle cells break open and enter the bloodstream.
