SELF-CALIBRATED FLOW-THROUGH ASSAY DEVICES

摘要

An internal, self-calibrated system for flow-through assay devices is provided. In particular, the present invention employs the use of a single calibration/detection zone defined by a porous membrane of the assay. It has been discovered that the internal, self-calibrated system provides an accurate, inexpensive, and readily controllable method of determining the presence of an analyte in a test sample.
