A test device (5) for determining the presence, absence or amount of an analyte in a liquid test sample which comprises: I) at least one teststrip (6,7) comprising at least: - a sample receiving zone; - a reaction zone; and, - an indication zone, the teststrip (6,7) comprising a material which makes transport of the analyte from the sample receiving zone (8) preferably via the reaction zone, to the indication zone, possible and in which, the analyte, if present, is directly or indirectly detectable in the indication zone; and II) a sample receiving means which is in functional connection with the sample receiving zone of the teststrip, so that when the liquid sample is added to the receiving means the liquid sample is in liquid contact with the sample receiving zone and the sample receiving means will receive no more liquid than a predetermined quantity, wherein when the device is placed on a horizontal plane the teststrip makes an angle of from 10 to 90° with the horizontal plane.
