Abstract

2030517 9011830 PCTABS00002 The vehicle comprises a sample receiving reservoir (15), a plurality of test stations each comprising an FCFD or other capillary fill sensor cell (3), and means (22) for providing fluid communication between the reservoir and a conduit with which end portions of said cells communicated such that in use sample from the reservoir may be fed to the plurality of cells substantially simultaneously. The vehile makes it easier to know time zero for each assay. Means (22) providing fluid connection may comprise at least one pore in a wall of the reservoir, the or each pore being of a size such that surface tension of the liquid normally prevents escape of ligand. Rotation of the vehicle breaks surface tension and liquid is released into the conduit.
