The present invention relates to methods of making a sterilized biosensor, where the biosensor comprises at least one binding reagent, which comprises at least one non-enzyme proteinaceous binding domain. Certain embodiments of the methods described herein comprise partially assembling the components of the biosensor, except for the binding reagent, and separately sterilizing this partial assemblage and the binding reagent. The sterilized binding reagent and the sterilized partial assemblage are then aseptically assembled to produce the sterilized biosensor. Other embodiments of the methods described herein comprise assembling substantially all of the components of the biosensor, including the binding reagent, and sterilizing the assembled biosensor to produce a sterilized biosensor.
