A method and apparatus are provided for integrating sample preparation and multiplex assay of high volume samples for the presence of nucleic acid and antigen targets. The method and apparatus use a three dimensional platform, such as a column, for capturing desired targets out of the large volume sample. The column has a multiplicity of sample processing and target capture zones. The method and apparatus further provides a simple and efficient sample pre-processing and testing methodology, as well as a simple and environmentally friendly detection methodology.
