| abstract |
A method for collection of complex samples and bio-analysis of the same. Specifically, a system having a porous wicking matrix, at least one capillary, a filtration membrane, and a filtration well, for bio-analysis of complex samples, which enable processing of biomolecule capture and/or immunoassay detection. The system allows for processing samples such as: whole blood, serum, plasma, urine, wound fluid, bronchial lavage, and sputum. Amounts available for measure range from 0.1 μ L to 10 mL. |
