Abstract
A lateral flow device for use in a mainframe or point-of-care clinical analyzer, in which the lateral flow device includes a planar support having at least one sample addition area and at least one reaction area disposed thereon. The sample addition area and reaction area are fluidly interconnected to one another and form at least one lateral fluid flow path. The lateral flow device is sized for retention within a storage cartridge of the analyzer defined by a hollow interior and having a plurality of lateral flow assay devices retained in stacked relation therein.
