Abstract
One aspect of the invention provides a device for detecting an analyte in a sample. The device includes: a sample loading region, an imaging window, a well, and an absorbent pad. The sample loading region is in fluid communication with the well. The well is in fluid communication with the absorbent pad, such that when a fluid sample comprising solid support structures and a liquid carrier are applied to the sample loading region, the fluid sample travels to the well and at least part of the liquid carrier is absorbed into the absorbent pad.
