A pocket-sized detection device for detection of one or more analytes, the device comprising:

• a first sample compartment for receiving a sample which may contain the one or more analytes, the first sample compartment including a first sealing component for sealing the first sample compartment once the sample has been received therein;
• a second compartment in fluid connection with the first sample compartment for receiving a fluid sample therefrom, the second compartment containing multiple individual channels;
• a third compartment, including a reservoir, for
• i. loading therethrough individual detectors for placement in the individual channels;
• and
• ii. receiving at least some of the fluid sample therein from the second compartment, the third compartment including a second sealing component for sealing the third compartment once the individual detectors are loaded in the individual channels;
• wherein, once the first and second sealing components are sealed, the pocket-sized device retains the fluid sample therein;
• and
• further wherein the multiple individuals channels within the second compartment include micropores at ends thereof for facilitating transfer of at least some of the fluid sample therein to the third compartment.
