Claim 2:
3. The method of claim 1 wherein (a) each of said planar body, said sample chamber and said metering chamber has a top and a bottom, (b) the top and the bottom of each of said sample chamber and said metering chamber is in the same orientation as the top and bottom of said planar body, and (c) the top of said metering chamber is positioned in said planar body at a predetermined distance above said bottom of said sample chamber so that whenever a lysis buffer is released into said sample chamber it is capable of flowing through a first conduit to the top of said metering chamber upon reaching an equilibrium level under gravity, thereby introducing a predetermined amount of the lysis buffer into said metering chamber from said sample chamber.
