Abstract
The present invention is directed to a simple and inexpensive liquid or dry reagent assay system for detecting nanomolar amounts of manganese in body fluids in microgram per liter concentrations. More specifically, the manganese assay of this invention is directed to the optical detection of a chromogenic reaction, such as the oxidation of a redox indicator, catalyzed by a manganese porphyrin complex.
