within the test chamber for receiving the test sample, and a temperature
control member. The cassette has at least one aperture extending from an
exterior of the cassette to the hollow test chamber. The test strip
includes a reagent adapted to react with the at least one analyte to
produce a reaction indicative of the presence of the analyte. The
temperature control member is adapted to extend through the at least one
aperture in the cassette and into the test chamber for controlling the
temperature of the test chamber.
