Devices are provided for producing plasma or serum from blood samples, where the plasma or serum is substantially free of red blood cells, hemoglobin, and metabolites and degradation products thereof. The sample can be used in various assays without interference from the interfering components of red blood cells.

Plasma forming device

Methods and compositions are provided for measuring an analyte without instrumentation. The device employs a stripstick which may include as its components, a discontinuous flow path, which is made continuous after transfer of the sample, means for automatically metering the volume of a sample, and means for providing a sharply delineated color front. The method finds particular use where a limited amount of substrate is provided for an enzyme on a sample pad.
