The present invention relates to technology for constructing a reaction
system including a test target, an oxidation-reduction enzyme, and an
electron mediator, and measuring the concentration of the test target by
an electrochemical process. A Ru compound is used as the electron
mediator. The present invention provides a concentration test instrument
including a substrate, first and second electrodes formed on the
substrate, and a reagent layer formed as a solid. The reagent layer
contains an oxidation-reduction enzyme and a Ru compound, and is
constituted so as to dissolve and construct a liquid phase reaction
system when a sample liquid is supplied.
