    摘要: A method for performing multiple, simultaneous in vitro diagnostic tests is provided. The method utilizes a solid phase device comprising a receptacle and an insert. The receptacle has one or more fixed components immobilized on its inner surface. The insert has one or more fixed components--different from those immobilized on the receptacle--immobilized on its surface which is in contact with a fluid sample when inserted therein. The test is performed by placing a fluid sample, having two or more mobile components reactive with the fixed components, into the receptacle and in contact with the insert for a period of time and measuring the changes which are a function of the concentration of the mobile components.

    摘要: An assay device for detection or determination of an analyte in a sample uses either removably attachable components or hinged panels to provide greater flexibility and reduce manufacturing and storage costs. In one embodiment of the device, the device comprises: (1) a first opposable component including:(a) a first panel; (b) a second panel mounted on the first panel generally parallel to the first panel with space between the first and second panel, the second panel having an opening forming a first receptacle for a sample collection device; and (c) a second receptacle for a test strip formed by the first panel and the second panel; and (2) a second opposable component hingedly attached to the first opposable component. In this device, the first and second opposable components can be brought into operable contact so that fluid is expressed from the sample collection device and applied to the test strip for detection or determination of an analyte by a test performed on the test strip. Other embodiments of devices are included, as well as test kits and method of use of the devices.

    摘要: The present invention relates to modifying rapid immunochromatographic (“ICT”) tests for the detection of characteristic carbohydrate antigens of bacteria that are known to be causative of otitis media and respiratory diseases in children under the age of approximately 12 years. Children of this age group are also prone to nasopharyngeal colonization with the same bacteria, and urine samples taken from colonized, but otherwise healthy, children were shown to exhibit an unduly high incidence of test results that were false positive for the presence of disease.The test modifications, which maintain the test sensitivity unchanged and the test specificity at a value above 90% were developed to insure that healthy, albeit colonized, children were not medicated for disease the bacteria are known to cause. The modifications involve either (1) reducing the total amount of antibodies to the carbohydrate antigen employed in each test, (2) adding at least one fixed “scrub” line located just prior to the capture line in the sample flow path to the preprepared ICT test strip to “scrub” out an identical amount of target antigen from all bodily fluid test samples obtained from both colonized but otherwise healthy children and diseased children, or (3) combinations of (1) and (2).

    摘要: A lateral flow chromatographic assay format for the performance of rapid enzyme-driven assays is described. A combination of components necessary to elicit a specific enzyme reaction, which are either absent from the intended sample or insufficiently present therein to permit completion of the desired reaction, are predeposited as substrate in dry form together with ingredients necessary to produce a desired color upon occurrence of the desired reaction. The strip is equipped with a sample pad placed ahead of the substrate deposit in the flowstream, to which liquid sample is applied. The sample flows from the sample pad into the substrate zone where it immediately reconstitutes the dried ingredients while also intimately mixing with them and reacting with them at the fluid front. The fluid front moves rapidly into the final “read zone” wherein the color developed is read against predetermined color standards for the desired reaction. Pretreatment pads for the sample, as needed, (e.g. a lysing pad for lysing red blood cells in whole blood) are placed in front of the sample pad in the flow path as appropriate. The assay in the format of the invention is faster and easier to perform than analogous wet chemistry assays.Specific assays for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (“G-6PD”), total serum cholesterol, β-lactamase activity and peroxidase activity are disclosed.
