The device comprises a carrier matrix incorporated with the composition, and the method for using the device comprises contacting a test sample with the device and observing a detectable response therein. A method for preparing the device comprises preparing two or more solutions of the ingredients of the composition, wetting the carrier matrix sequentially therewith and drying the matrix after each wetting.
