摘要：A diagnostic kit is disclosed for the detection of hemoglobin, myoglobin, ferritin, or the like substances having peroxidase-like activity in different mixtures of biological origin, such as fecal blood in toilet bowl, occult blood in the breath of internally bleeding horses, or myoglobin in the urine of severely muscle damaged victims. The kit includes, in an air, moisture, and light proof package, an inert water insoluble matrix, such as a sheet of paper, which has an area where a chemical composition containing a water soluble polymer, or polymers, is deposited in at least two separate steps of thin film coating, for the detection of the above substances. The composition further includes one or more oxygen donors, one or more organic peroxides or other suitable oxidizing agents, and a leuco-dye which gives a colored oxidation product when it is oxidized by the oxidizing agents with the hemoglobin or like substance acting as the catalyst. Also disclosed is a method of making the test device for use in the kit. Also disclosed is a method of making the test device for use in the kit.
