Abstract

An analyte detection apparatus is disclosed and configured for testing a substance for the presence or absence of at least one target analyte. In at least one embodiment, a housing provides a mixing chamber and a testing chamber in selective fluid communication with the mixing chamber. During use of the apparatus, a volume of the substance is collected via a collection scoop and introduced into the mixing chamber where it is mixed with a delivery fluid within the mixing chamber. An end cap is engaged with the housing in order to seal the mixing chamber, and a mixing valve is moved into an open position, allowing the substance to travel into the testing chamber and come into contact with a test medium, with a resulting visual indication from the test medium being viewable via a result window.
