Integrated Buffer Dual-Path Immunoassay Device

摘要

A test device for use with a liquid solution includes a housing that houses a plurality of sorbent strips. At least one strip has a location for receiving the solution. The housing defines at least an opening in said housing wherein said opening is aligned with the location for receiving the solution. The device includes a sealed reservoir filled with the liquid solution, the sealed reservoir being disposed in alignment with the opening and coupled to the housing. The device includes an opener coupled to the housing. The opener is arranged to rotate from a first position, in which the opener is not in contact with the sealed reservoir, to a second position, in which the opener causes the sealed reservoir to effect a release of the solution from the reservoir and into the opening and onto the sorbent strip housed within the housing.

主权项

1. A test device for use with a liquid solution the test device comprising:
a) a housing that houses a plurality of sorbent strips, at least one strip having a location for receiving the solution, said housing defining at least an opening aligned above said location for receiving the solution; b) a sealed reservoir filled with the liquid solution, said reservoir being disposed in alignment with said opening and coupled to said housing; and c) an opener coupled to said housing, said opener arranged to rotate from a first position, in which said opener is not in contact with said sealed reservoir, to a second position, in which said opener causes said sealed reservoir to effect a release of the solution from said reservoir and into said opening and onto said sorbent strip housed within said housing.
