Abstract
Disclosed is a method for detecting analytes in samples of whole blood using solid-phase, permeable support assay devices. The whole blood assays require no steps or reagents other than those necessary to carry out the same analysis on plasma or serum using the devices. The color visualization of the analytical field on which the interpretation of the assay depends is not affected by the presence of intact erythrocytes or any degree of hemolysis in the blood sample.
