ABSTRACT:
Labile coenzymes, such as reduced nicotinamide-adenide dinucleotide (NADH.sub.2), used in biological diagnostic determinations are stabilized by forming a composition of the coenzyme with an organic solvent such as 1,2 propanediol in the presence of at least 1% by volume of a solid, inert hygroscopic agent such as 10% by volume of a molecular sieve material. After stabilization, the inert hygroscopic agent can be removed without materially affecting stabilization of the composition. The stabilized composition shows excellent shelf life and a container in which the composition is stored may be repeatedly opened for use without degradation of the labile coenzymes such as the labile NADH.sub.2.
