This infographic focuses on understanding lateral flow tests, devices used to detect target substances in liquid samples without specialized equipment. It covers the main components, sample types, membrane selection, and the relationship between flow rate and sensitivity.
What you will learn about:
- Choosing the right membrane for different sample types
- The role of capillary flow rate in assay performance
- The need for sensitivity in detecting low concentrations of analytes

More Information
This infographic details various sample types that can be tested, including whole blood, serum, urine, environmental samples, veterinary samples, agricultural samples, and samples for detecting infectious disease organisms and drugs. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of selecting the right membrane for different sample types, with Hi-Flow™ Plus membranes offering varying flow rates and sensitivity to cater to specific testing needs. The relationship between flow rate and sensitivity is illustrated, showing how slower flow rates generally increase sensitivity, crucial for detecting low concentrations of analytes. This visual tool is valuable for understanding the intricacies of lateral flow tests and their broad applications.
