Abstract: The present technology relates to an analytical device for quantitative or qualitative analysis of one or more analytes in a sample. The analytical device comprises a reaction component and a capping component. The reaction component is capable of performing an analysis on a sample placed within an inner reaction chamber that is connected to an output end and conduit that eliminates the air or liquid component of the sample. Once the output end is sealed, the inner reaction chamber may be used as an extraction, reaction and analysis chamber with an optically clear path for interrogation of the sample. The analytical device may also feature a sealing device that seals the inner reaction chamber during analysis. The sealing device may also have an inner chamber for accommodating lyophilized reagents that can be added at any point during the procedure.
