Abstract
Certain phenols and anilines can be used as electron transfer agents to increase the rate of oxidation of leuco dyes by peroxidase. These phenols and anilines can react with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of peroxidase to provide intermediates which have higher oxidation potentials than the slowly oxidized substrates, e.g. the leuco dyes. These phenols and anilines can be used to advantage in both solution and dry assays of various analytes. They are particularly useful for the determination of an immunologically reactive ligand in an immunoassay.
