Reactivos, procedimientos y dispositivos para detectar analitos

摘要

Reagents for detecting an analyte are described. A reagent comprises (a) an enzyme selected from the group consisting of a flavoprotein, a quinoprotein, and a combination thereof; and (b) a mediator selected from the group consisting of a phenothiazine, a phenoxazine, and a combination thereof. In addition, reagents having good stability to radiation sterilization are described. Electrochemical sensors and sampling devices comprising such reagents, methods of producing a sterilized device including such reagents, and methods for detecting an analyte which utilize such reagents are described as well.
