Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method includes coupling a molecular diagnostic test device to a power source. A biological sample is conveyed into a sample preparation module. The device is then actuated by only a single action to cause the device to perform the following functions without further user action. First, the device heats the sample via a heater of the sample preparation module to lyse a portion of the sample. Second, the device conveys the lysed sample to an amplification module and heats the sample within a reaction volume of the amplification module to amplify a nucleic acid thereby producing an output solution containing a target amplicon. The device then reacts, within a detection module, each of (i) the output solution and (ii) a reagent formulated to produce a signal that indicates a presence of the target amplicon within the output solution. A result associated with the signal is then read.
