A device for determining the presence or amount of an analyte in a sample, comprising: a first cup comprising an interior for holding a liquid sample, a top, one or more sidewalls, and a bottom; a second cup having a top, one or more sidewalls, and a bottom; the first cup disposed within the second cup; at least one reservoir for containing an aliquot of sample located between the first and second cups, the first cup further comprising an aperture venting from the interior of the first cup into the at least one reservoir; a valve assembly interfacing with the at least one reservoir for regulating communication of the aliquot of sample from the interior of the first cup to the reservoir; one or more test elements comprising a sample application zone, for determining the presence or amount of an analyte in the liquid sample; and a passageway connecting the at least one reservoir and the sample application zone, characterised in that the first cup has a first position where liquid communication is capable of occurring between the reservoir and the interior of the first cup, and a second position where the valve assembly is configured to seal the at least one reservoir from liquid communication with the interior of the first cup and where liquid communication is capable of occurring between the reservoir and the one or more test elements through the passageway, and wherein the device further comprises a seal located at a base of the at least one reservoir that is (i) configured to seal the reservoir to prevent liquid communication with the passageway when the first cup is in the first position, and (ii) opened when the first cup is moved to the second position thereby allowing liquid communication between the reservoir and the test elements. a first cup comprising an interior for holding a liquid sample, a top, one or more sidewalls, and a bottom; a second cup having a top, one or more sidewalls, and a bottom; the first cup disposed within the second cup; at least one reservoir for containing an aliquot of sample located between the first and second cups, the first cup further comprising an aperture venting from the interior of the first cup into the at least one reservoir; a valve assembly interfacing with the at least one reservoir for regulating communication of the aliquot of sample from the interior of the first cup to the reservoir; one or more test elements comprising a sample application zone, for determining the presence or amount of an analyte in the liquid sample; and a passageway connecting the at least one reservoir and the sample application zone, characterised in that the first cup has a first position where liquid communication is capable of occurring between the reservoir and the interior of the first cup, and a second position where the valve assembly is configured to seal the at least one reservoir from liquid communication with the interior of the first cup and where liquid communication is capable of occurring between the reservoir and the one or more test elements through the passageway, and wherein the device further comprises a seal located at a base of the at least one reservoir that is (i) configured to seal the reservoir to prevent liquid communication with the passageway when the first cup is in the first position, and (ii) opened when the first cup is moved to the second position thereby allowing liquid communication between the reservoir and the test elements.
