Abstract
Abstract A test composition, device and method for determining a perioxidatively active substance in a test sample, as well as a method for preparing and using the device, are disclosed. The composition comprises an organic hydroperoxide, a benzidine indicator capable of providing a detectable response in the presence of the organic hydroperoxide and a peroxidatively active substance, and, as a stabilizing agent, an aniline chosen from pheny-1-naphthylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline and mixtures thereof. The device comprises a carrier matrix incorporated with the composition, and the method for using the device comprises contacting a test sample with the device and observing a detectable response therein. A method for preparing the device comprises preparing two or more solutions of the ingredients of the composition, wetting the carrier matrix sequentially therewith and drying the matrix after each wetting.

Claim 10
Independent Claim
33 words
A method for preparing a test device for determining the presence of a peroxidatively active substance in a test sample, comprising incorporating a carrier matrix with the composition of claims 1 or 5.
Claim 11
Independent Claim
139 words
A method for preparing a test device for determining the presence of a peroxidatively active substance in a test sample, comprising the steps of: (a) preparing a first solution comprising an organic hydroperoxide and a benzidine indicator capable of providing a detectable response in the presence of the hydroperoxide and a peroxidatively active substance; (b) preparing a second solution comprising an aniline chosen from phenyl-1-naphthylamine and N,N-dimethylaniline and mixtures thereof and an organic solvent; (c) incorporating the first solution with a carrier matrix by wetting the matrix with the solution; (d) drying the wetted matrix to leave a residue of the first solution ingredients therein; (e) incorporating the second solution with the matrix by wetting the dried matrix with the second solution; and (f) finally drying the wetted matrix to leave a residue of the second solution ingredients therein.
