Abstract
Methods and systems are contemplated in which a leading substance may be separated from a lagging substance. A fluid sample comprising the leading substance and the lagging substance can be applied to an absorption substrate through which the leading substance and the lagging substance may diffuse throughout. The absorption substrate may be in contact with a separation substrate to form a fluid pathway therebetween, allowing the leading substance and the lagging substance to then diffuse throughout the separation substrate. The separation substrate may be operative to permit the leading substance to diffuse throughout the separation substrate while impeding the diffusivity of the lagging substance, which may allow the leading substance to separate from the lagging substance. A collecting element may collect the leading substance from the separation substrate at a portion of the separation substrate where sufficient separation between the substances has occurred.
