Publication number: 20140151224Abstract: Assay modules, preferably assay cartridges, are described as are reader apparatuses which may be used to control aspects of module operation. The modules preferably comprise a detection chamber with integrated electrodes that may be used for carrying out electrode induced luminescence measurements. Methods are described for immobilizing assay reagents in a controlled fashion on these electrodes and other surfaces. Assay modules and cartridges are also described that have a detection chamber, preferably having integrated electrodes, and other fluidic components which may include sample chambers, waste chambers, conduits, vents, bubble traps, reagent chambers, dry reagent pill zones and the like. In certain preferred embodiments, these modules are adapted to receive and analyze a sample collected on an applicator stick.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2014Publication date: June 5, 2014Applicant: Meso Scale Technologies, LLCInventors: Eli N. Glezer, Jonathan K. Leland, Mark A. Billadeau, Joseph M. Leginus, Bandele Jeffrey-Coker, Jeff D. Debad, Koustubh A. Phalnikar, Sriram Jambunathan
