ABSTRACT:
Over the counter assay cassette for clinical or home use for testing human conditions such as, HIV and Hepatitis B, having a blood well for receiving blood and viewing aperture for viewing an indication of the assay results and a membrane strip disposed within the cassette for receiving the blood and providing an indication of the human condition, is improved with an integrally disposed needle and an outer covering which, in a first position exposes the needle for drawing of the blood and exposes the blood well but covers the viewing aperture, and in a second position, covers the needle and exposes to the viewing aperture, so that, the human can view the results of the assay while the covered needle reduces the risk of secondary inadvertent puncturing by the used needle to reduce the risk of transmission of infectious disease.
