  • Publication number: 20210033598
    Abstract: The present invention provides a detection device comprises a testing element and a transparent area, wherein the testing element comprises a test area which is configured to detect a presence of an analyte in a liquid sample; the transparent area is configured to read the test result on the test area through the transparent area; a part of the transparent area contacts a part of the detection area, or the detection area and the transparent area are arranged in one sealed space, thus to make the air in the sealed space not exchange with the air outside the sealed space; the scheme can reduce the mist to ensure the test result is displayed clearly.

  • Patent number: 10830672
    Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for collecting and detecting liquid samples comprising a first chamber and a second chamber. The first chamber is used for collecting liquid samples for initial detection, and the second chamber is used for collecting liquid samples for second confirmatory detection. The first chamber and second chamber of the apparatus are detachable. When a second confirmatory detection is necessary, the second chamber can be separated from the first chamber, and then sent to a detection agency for confirmatory detection. It can avoid the contamination of liquid samples caused by contacting with test strip of a traditional apparatus; thus, it can effectively reduce the space required for storing liquid samples and greatly reduce the risk of leakage of liquid sampled during transportation.

  • Patent number: 7803636
    Abstract: The present invention provides devices, methods and kits for detecting the presence of an analyte in a liquid sample. The invention provides devices having a positive control area covered with an opaque, movable material, such as an ink, dye, or other material, that is moved on the device by the flow of liquid sample, thereby exposing the positive control area underneath. Using the interaction of colored signals from the positive control area and the analyte binding area, a recognizable symbol is revealed on the device that correlates with the test results, and appears as the test is conducted.

  • Patent number: 7704753
    Abstract: The present invention provides devices, methods and kits for detecting the presence of an analyte in a liquid sample and indicating to the user the presence or absence of the analyte through the formation of a recognizable symbol during the assay. In one embodiment, the present invention provides test strips having a matrix including a sample application zone, a reagent zone, and a detection zone. Within the detection zone are located positive and negative control areas, and an analyte binding area. The positive control area contains one or more components that exhibit a first color when dry and a second color when wetted. When the assay is conducted, the positive control area is wetted by the assay fluids and turns to a second color, thereby functioning as a positive procedural control. When analyte is present in the sample, it binds at the analyte binding area, which interacts with the positive control area to form a second recognizable symbol at the detection zone.
