Abstract
An apparatus for obtaining highly uniform thin rectangular strips from solid support sheets, such as antigen-laden nitrocellulose sheets used in immunoassays, is disclosed which includes a rectangular-shaped base plate having longitudinal parallel grooves, a hinged rectangular-shaped top plate having longitudinal parallel slots and a fastening element to secure the top plate to the base plate so that the longitudinal slots of the top plate register precisely above the longitudinal grooves of the base plate. The apparatus also includes cutting blades, a holder for holding the cutting blades, a sliding mechanism to move the holder and the blades through the longitudinal parallel slots, solid support sheet and across the longitudinal parallel grooves, and hold down bars and trackways to guide the cutting blades through the longitudinal parallel slots and across the longitudinal parallel grooves.
