Abstract
Abstract The present invention provides a dry reagent for blood coagulation tests in which an at least partial course of the coagulation cascade takes place, comprising a carrier material which contains a chromophoric substrate of a protease of the blood coagulation system, at least one factor and/or co-factor of the blood coagulation system and a buffer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 20
Claim 1
Independent Claim
150 words
Test strip useful in carrying out a Quick Test, a partial prothromboplastin time test, or in an analysis of one of prothrombin, Factor VII, Factor VIII, Factor IX and Factor X, comprising: (i) a carrier material containing (ii) a protease which reacts with prothrombin, Factor VII, Factor VIII, Factor IX or Factor X to yield an activated protease; (iii) a chromophoric protease substrate cleavable by said activated protease in a reaction which does not change the course of the intrinsic or extrinsic coagulation cascade system of blood in the presence of said carrier material, (iv) a buffer, and (v) at least one additional member of the intrinsic or extrinsic coagulation cascade system, wherein said protease reacts with prothrombin, Factor VII, Factor VIII, Factor IX or Factor X in a reaction which is part of the intrinsic or extrinsic coagulation cascade system wherein (ii), (v) are dried on said carrier material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
150 words
Test strip useful in carrying out a Quick Test, a partial prothromboplastin time test, or in an analysis of one of prothrombin, Factor VII, Factor VIII, Factor IX and Factor X, comprising: (i) a carrier material containing (ii) a protease which reacts with prothrombin, Factor VII, Factor VIII, Factor IX or Factor X to yield an activated protease; (iii) a chromophoric protease substrate cleavable by said activated protease in a reaction which does not change the course of the intrinsic or extrinsic coagulation cascade system of blood in the presence of said carrier material, (iv) a buffer, and (v) at least one additional member of the intrinsic or extrinsic coagulation cascade system, wherein said protease reacts with prothrombin, Factor VII, Factor VIII, Factor IX or Factor X in a reaction which is part of the intrinsic or extrinsic coagulation cascade system wherein (ii), (v) are dried on said carrier material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
60 words
The test strip of claim 1 further comprising a second carrier material comprising an oxidizing agent, and said first carrier material further comprises an aniline or phenol derivative which forms a colored compound with the chromophoric protease substrate after said chromophoric protease substrate has been cleaved by said protease to release a chromophore in the presence of said oxidizing agent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
