Embodiment Construction

[0060] figure 1 with figure 2 The assembled test equipment 1 according to the invention is shown separately. The test equipment 1 includes a housing 3 having a front panel 5. Such as figure 1 As shown, a sample receiving port 7 is provided on one side of the front panel 5. Such as figure 2 As shown, a viewing port 9 is provided on the other side of the front panel 5. A first flap 15 is provided to cover the sample receiving port 7 while a second flap 17 is provided to cover the viewing port 9.

[0061] The test strip 11 is contained in the housing 3 and passes figure 2 Part of the test strip 11 can be seen on the viewing port 9 in. The test strip 11 contains at least one reagent for detecting the analyte in the sample being tested by the test device 1.

[0062] The sample receiving matrix 8 is located behind the sample receiving port 7. The purpose of the sample receiving matrix 8 is to receive the sample and facilitate the transfer of the sample delivered to the sample rece...

Abstract

Provided is a test device for testing an analyte in a collected sample comprising: an enclosure having at least one sample receiving port for receiving the sample; a test strip located within the enclosure, the test strip containing at least one reagent for detecting the analyte and for providing an indication showing a test result for the sample, the enclosure including a detection arrangement for allowing detection of the indication of the test strip; a sample receiving matrix positioned behind the at least one sample receiving port and having a defined saturation capacity, the sample receiving matrix being impregnated with reagents for pre-treatment of the sample and being in liquid conductive communication with the test strip. Also provided is a method for use of said test device comprising: delivering one or more samples to the at least one sample receiving port to saturate the sample receiving matrix such that a quantified amount of the sample is transferred to the test strip and an indication of the test result is effected.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a diagnostic and analysis system for detecting analytes in a sample, and particularly relates to test equipment and methods suitable for the present application. Although the present invention will be described with respect to the application of the present invention in screening for lower gastrointestinal diseases, particularly in screening for colorectal cancer, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to this application, but other applications are also envisaged. Background technique [0002] Guaiacum-based Fecal Occult Blood Test (gFOBT) and Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) are used to screen the presence of blood in stool as a possible indicator of colorectal cancer (CRC) or its precursor damage. Although proven effective, the compliance of these screening tests is generally less than 50%, which is generally thought to be due to aversion to fecal handling. Usually feces must be collec...
