Abstract
A testing apparatus is described that contains a test sample and one or more reagents, or reaction solutions associated with chemical reactions and a resilient, compressible, porous material, and which is amenable to subsequent process or reaction steps or liquid transfer steps. A piece of sponge or foam rubber, which is compatible with the amplification reactions and amplification products, is introduced into the reaction vessel and absorbs the test sample and reagents, or reaction solutions associated with an amplification process, or amplification products thus, reducing their loss through aerosolation.
