Abstract: An analyte detection apparatus is disclosed and configured for testing a substance for the presence or absence of at least one target analyte. In at least one embodiment, a housing provides a mixing chamber and a testing chamber in selective fluid communication with the mixing chamber. During use of the apparatus, a volume of the substance is collected via a collection scoop and introduced into the mixing chamber where it is mixed with a delivery fluid within the mixing chamber. An end cap is engaged with the housing in order to seal the mixing chamber, and a mixing valve is moved into an open position, allowing the substance to travel into the testing chamber and come into contact with a test medium, with a resulting visual indication from the test medium being viewable via a result window.

Abstract: A flush syringe and integrated swab assembly comprises a chamber and a tip having a passageway. The assembly includes a plunger rod and an integral swab including an integral collar extending from the distal wall of the barrel, surrounding the distal tip, and having a collar distal end and a collar proximal end, the integral collar including at least one sidewall having an inside surface including an inner thread thereon defining a Luer lock area and configured to connect to the hub of a vascular access device connector, the at least one sidewall further having an outside surface including an outer thread thereon configured for connection to the removable cap that when connected to the integral collar covers the integral collar to protect the distal tip and the collar from contamination, and a porous hollow mass connected to the inner thread of the integral collar.

Abstract: An analyte detection apparatus is disclosed and configured for testing a substance for the presence or absence of at least one target analyte. In at least one embodiment, a housing provides a mixing chamber and a testing chamber in selective fluid communication with the mixing chamber. During use of the apparatus, an end cap is disengaged from the housing, a volume of the substance is collected via a collection scoop provided by the end cap, the end cap is re-engaged with the housing, thereby introducing the substance from the collection scoop into the mixing chamber, the substance is mixed with a delivery fluid within the mixing chamber, and a mixing valve is rotated into an open position, allowing the substance to travel into the testing chamber and come into contact with a test medium, with a resulting visual indication from the test medium being viewable via a result window.
