Abstract

See full text

Methods and devices are provided involving an inlet port, at least one chamber, a channel providing access for fluids to flow through via capillary action or differential pressure, reagents, detection means and self-venting materials. The devices allow for the appropriate mixing, reacting, incubating needed to give a detectable signal which can be read. The self-venting materials allow for the 1) displacement of gases inside a track to the outside of the device and 2) oxygen movement into the track from the outside.
