ABSTRACT:
Devices, methods and kits for conducting an assay to determine the presence or amount of an analyte in a fluid sample. The device includes a sample application element and a flow path matrix that facilitates fluidic flow by capillary action. The sample application element includes a non-absorbent or absorbent carrier that has a conjugate reagent that is readily solubilized by the liquid sample. In various aspects of the invention, the sample application element and the matrix are associated with a housing that allows for releasable contact between the element and the matrix. In other aspects, the invention includes methods using the device and kits including the device.
