Abstract: The present invention relates to an oral fluid rapid immunochromatography test. More particularly, the present invention relates to an oral fluid collection swab separate from a lateral flow immunochromatography strip for detecting an analyte in oral fluid, consisting essentially of a sample pad, a conjugate pad, a test zone and control zone pad made of at least one matrix material, wherein the conjugate pad lies downstream of the sample pad, and is striped with a conjugate; the test and control zone pad lies downstream of the conjugate pad, wherein the test zone is immobilized with an specific binding reagent that specifically binding to the target analyte; and the control zone, downstream of the test zone, is immobilized with a second capture reagent. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the strip, a lateral flow immunochromatography method for detecting an analyte in oral fluid by using the strip, and kits containing the strip.

Abstract: An Oil/Water Separator apparatus includes a portable container advantageously having rigid sides, including spaced apart side walls and rigid floor. Within the rigid container are defined at least two, advantageously, three chambers in an adjacent array in a downstream direction. The chambers are separated by rigid separating partitions or baffles rigidly mounted to, so as to extend between, the opposite side walls of the container. Adjacent chambers are connected in fluid communication therebetween so that influent water containing oil to be separated may enter into a first upstream reservoir chamber. The influent water is deposited into the reservoir chamber. A downstream partition or baffle separates the reservoir chamber from the downstream coalescing chamber. The first partition has an opening under a lowermost edge thereof. Water passes under the partition from the reservoir chamber into the coalescing chamber.
