DRY FORMAT SIALIDASE ASSAY

摘要

A solid-phase test device and method for the detection of sialidase activity in a fluid sample. The test device comprises a solid support provided with pre-deposited dry form of a sialidase detecting composition comprising a sialidase substrate and a color-developing reagent, wherein the sialidase substrate when exposed to sialidase yields an intermediate compound which reacts with the color-developing reagent to form a detectable color change.
