ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are assay apparatus, devices and methods that permit longitudinal capillary flow of liquid between two pieces of bibulous material which, prior to actuation, are in a non-capillary flow relationship to each other. In particular, the devices utilize a distortable member which when distorted, actuates the device by creating a capillary flow relationship between the two pieces of bibulous material. In an alternative embodiment the apparatus, devices, and methods include at least one additional piece of bibulous material.
