Glycated protein assay reagent containing stabilizer of protease that increases oxidation-reduction potential of ferrocyanide, method for assaying glycated protein, method for preserving glycated protein assay reagent, and method for stabilizing glycated protein assay reagent

Abstract

Provided is a glycated protein assay reagent containing at least a Trinder reagent, 4-aminoantipyrine, protease, a stabilizer of the protease, and ferrocyanide, wherein at least the Trinder reagent is contained in a Trinder reagent-containing partial composition, at least the 4-aminoantipyrine is contained in a 4-aminoantipyrine-containing partial composition, the stabilizer of the protease is a stabilizer that increases the oxidation-reduction potential of the ferrocyanide above 0.058 V when the stabilizer of the protease and the ferrocyanide are mixed, and the oxidation-reduction potential is an oxidation-reduction potential in a reaction system containing the stabilizer of the protease and the ferrocyanide and not containing glycated protein.
