The device comprises a membrane (38) containing a plurality of separated areas provided with different immobilized antibodies, each of the antibodies having a specific binding site for specific antigens which correspond to the substances to indicate the presence of those substances in the saliva sample. The device further comprises a base area without immobilized antibodies to record the fingerprint of the test subject. |
