ABSTRACT:
A method for substantially preventing coating of hydrophobic material on a probe of an automated analyzer during an assay is described. An automated analyzer having a probe is provided. A composition comprising a non-denaturing surfactant and a reagent for use in the assay is provided. The probe is contacted with the composition during the assay such that hydrophobic material is substantially prevented from coating the probe on the automated analyzer. Compositions for preventing such probe coating are also described. Methods and compositions comprising a non-denaturing surfactant for enhancing the stability of reagents used in an assay are also described.
