Reagent for detection and assessment of total chlorine in aqueous solution

摘要

Provided is a heat dried reagent composition that is dry, methods of making it, and methods of using it. The heat dried reagent composition can be characterized by one or more of: stability to the heat drying conditions; storage stability of the heat dried reagent composition; fast rehydration time; rapid assay kinetics; and assay precision. The reagent composition is useful for detecting and/or assessing total chlorine in an aqueous sample, such as pool water.
