摘要

Some embodiments of the disclosure provide a diagnostic assay test strip for detecting analytes on one or more test pad using one or more reagents. The diagnostic test strip may include a supporting strip having one or more indentations and one or more test pads capable of fitting in those indentations. The diagnostic test strip may include one or more test pads on one or more sides of a carrier strip. The diagnostic test strip may include one or more intermediate layers and a carrier layer and a bottom laminate layer where the test pads are interspersed on the carrier layer. The diagnostic test strip may include test pads with a top, bottom, and sides, where the top and bottom of the pads have a trailing edge and a leading edge that are mechanically fixed to the carrier strip.
