An assay device and method are provided which allow for determination of the presence of an analyte in a sample while providing identification of the test subject. Self-contained assay device (110) includes a housing (111) with a first part (111a) and a second part (111b). Reaction medium (114) is located within the first part (111a) and mounted on a base member (112). Base member (12) includes a porous support which may be adjacent to the reaction medium (114) which includes at least reaction zone (120) as well as a control zone (116). A medium (126) containing a signal-producing agent is located in the second part of the housing (111b) and mounted on a base portion (128). The device additionally comprises a cylindrical body (140) having an open end (140a) and a closed end (140b) on which is mounted a medium (185) for containing and transferring a portion of test sample to the reaction medium (114).
