Abstract: A test strip configured for the detection of an analyte in a fluid sample and methods for manufacturing and for using the same. The test strip comprises a first flow matrix and a second flow matrix sequentially arranged to form an interface therebetween. The first flow matrix comprises a detection composition movably bound thereto, wherein the detection composition when exposed to the analyte produces at least one detectable product and wherein the first and second solid matrices are selected so as to accumulate the at least one detectable product at the interface between the two matrices, when the fluid sample travels from the first flow matrix to the second flow matrix.

Abstract: A solid-phase test device and a method for the detection of sialidase activity in a fluid sample. The test device includes a solid support provided with a pre-deposited dry form of a sialidase detecting composition. The sialidase detecting composition includes a sialidase substrate and a color-developing reagent. When the sialidase substrate is exposed to sialidase it yields an intermediate compound which reacts with the color-developing reagent to form a detectable color change.
