ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a reagent composition for detecting peroxidase-like activity in aqueous media, particularly for determining occult blood in fecal matter "in-the-bowl". The reagents comprise a dry mixture of a 3, 3', 5, 5' -tetramethylbenzidine and an alkali metal perborate, such as sodium perborate, and preferably also including a strong organic carboxylic acid such as citric acid and a sequesterant for trace metals such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. The composition can be made increasingly more stable by coating the tetramethylbenzidine and an antioxidant with a water soluble polymer and or film coating the sodium perborate with a coating at least partially soluble in water. The reagents are deposited in porous or holed matrices including adsorbent paper, gelatin and molded polysaccharide film.
