Indicator immobilization on assay devices

摘要

A lateral flow assay device for detecting the presence or quantity of an analyte in a test sample is provided. The device comprises a chromatographic medium that defines a detection zone, wherein a crosslinked network is non-diffusively immobilized within the detection zone. The crosslinked network contains a small molecule indicator that is configured to undergo a detectable color change in the presence of the analyte.
