Abstract

The present invention provides synthetic polymers having novel catalytic functions which mimic enzymatic reactions. The invention also provides a method for measuring glycated proteins such as glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and glycated albumin and for measuring their decomposition products fructosylamines, such as fructosylvaline, as well as assay reagents and sensors for use in the method.
