Abstract

Rats show an elevated creatine kinase (CK) activity in plasma after a 20-hour exposure to hypoxia. The increase of CK activity is essentially caused by CK-BB activity attaining its maximum at the 3rd day after exposure to hypoxia. The possibility of establishing a potential brain damage by determining CK-BB activity in plasma is discussed.
