Abstract: An apparatus and method electrically coupling an electrostatic chuck RF filter box with a pedestal lift. The RF filter box has a contact block and at least one alignment feature on an outer mating surface of the RF filter block. The contact block includes self-aligning electrical connectors and the alignment feature is configured for aligning self-aligning electrical connectors with corresponding electrical connectors on the bracket of the pedestal lift such that the self-aligning electrical connectors and the corresponding electrical connectors on the bracket of the pedestal lift automatically mate when the contact block is mounted to the bracket of the pedestal lift.

Abstract: A test device and method for determining the presence or absence of an analyte in a fluid sample, the test device including a support bearing a mark thereon, and a matrix defining an axial flow path. In operation, an observation area in the test device becomes transparent, thereby allowing the user to view a mark that is present on a support that is disposed beneath the observation area. Typically, the mark on the underlying support is configured as a minus (?) sign. In the absence of analyte in the sample, the test device presents a negative result as a minus (?) signal. In the presence of analyte in the sample, however, the mark operates in concert with a perpendicular test line on the observation area to present a positive result as a plus (+) signal that is visible to the user.
