Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to an improvement in a conventional method for the determination of uric acid involving uricase/catalase/aldehyde dehydrogenase, resulting in the formation of produced NAD(P)H as a measure of the initial uric acid present, which improvement comprises adding at least one compound selected from oxalates, malonic acid mono-lower alkyl esters, trihaloethanols, pyrazole, pyridine, substituted pyrazole and pyridine wherein the substituents are selected from lower alkyl and halogen, pyridine carboxylic acids, pyridine carboxylic acids substituted with a lower radical, pyridine carboxylic acid amides and pyridine carboxylic acid lower alkyl esters, thiourea, isobutyramide and chelate-forming complexing agents, in order to suppress disturbance-causing creep reactions in said method. Reagents containing such additive compounds are also provided.
