Claim Text:
1. An analyte testing material web, comprising: a material web having a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, a first side, and a second side; and a plurality of distinct sample testing devices positioned on the first surface of the material web, each of the plurality of sample testing devices having an inlet, an outlet, a fluid channel, and one or more testing elements within the fluid channel and configured to analyze one or more analyte within a sample applied to the inlet of one of the plurality of sample testing devices wherein the material web is a first material web having a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and a thickness extending between the first and second surfaces, and each of the plurality of distinct sample testing devices comprising: the one or more testing elements connected to the first surface of the first material web; a second material web having a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, a thickness extending between the first and second surfaces, and a plurality of openings, the second surface of the second material web overlapping the first surface of the first material web such that the plurality of openings form a plurality of wells defined by the thickness of the second material web and the first surface of the first material web, each of the plurality of wells defining the fluid channel of one of the sample testing devices encompassing at least one of the one or more testing elements; a third material web having a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, a thickness extending between the first and second surfaces, a plurality of inlets, and a plurality of outlets, the second surface of the third material web overlapping the first surface of the second material web such that certain of the plurality of inlets and certain of the plurality of outlets enable fluid communication with each of the plurality of wells, wherein each of the plurality of inlets form the inlet of one of the sample testing devices and each of the plurality of outlets form the outlet of one of the sample testing devices; and one or more testing elements positioned on the second surface of the third material web such that the at least one of the one or more testing elements of the third material web are encompassed along with the one or more testing elements of the first material web within the fluid channel of one of the sample testing devices.
