Abstract:
1. An assay cartridge comprising: detachable base and cap members, the base member defining at least two wells, including a reading well that has (i) two parallel, planar side walls of light-transparent plastic, and (ii) an angled, planar base, of light-transparent plastic, joining the two parallel side walls, so as to allow the absorption of light passing through a liquid in the reading well to be measured at a full width of the well and also through a narrower width between one of the side walls and the angled base of the well; and a pipette, positionable in at least one of said two wells, wherein the pipette has a proximal end and a distal end, said distal end being closed by a liquid-permeable membrane.
