Abstract
A glycemic management related analyte detecting assay device () and method are provided for detecting and quantifying analyte concentrations in a fluid sample. The assay device includes an absorbent body containing an assay forming a detection zone for receiving a fluid test sample. The absorbent body is provided in a chamber of the device. The assay can detect one or more of a glycemic analyte selected from the group consisting of fasting plasma blood glucose, oral glucose, % glycated hemoglobin, and fasting insulin concentrations. In one embodiment, a container includes an absorbent body having a plurality of superimposed membranes () where each membrane contains a reactant and a color indicator for detecting the presence of a selected analyte above a predetermined concentration in the fluid sample. The absorbent body and/or the assay include a color indicator that is able to provide a visual indication of the presence of one or more glycemic analytes present in the test sample.
