Abstract

See full text

A container for a liquid reagent, wherein the container has an outer wall and an internal piercing member, such that, upon application of pressure to the outer wall of the container, the internal piercing member punctures the container from the inside, thereby liberating the liquid contained therein. Such a container is configured to store the liquid for periods between 6 to 18 months with minimal loss of the liquid inside, other than if the container is ruptured. Such a container is also configured to require a particular force to be applied to the outer wall to cause the internal piercing member to puncture the container, such a force being greater than that ordinarily experienced by the container during routine storage, transport, or handling. The container is preferably adapted for use with a microfluidic cartridge.
