There is described an assay support generally planar and elongated in shape, and comprising a gripping section, a sample receiving well section, and a connecting section therebetween, each of the sections being aligned along a longitudinal axis. The sample receiving well section comprises at least two spaced-apart receiving wells, each having an open end on a first face of the support, a concave inner surface extending concavely into the support, and a convex outer surface which projects convexly from an opposed face of the support. The convex outer surface of at least one of the wells is provided with at least one stabilizing leg adapted to preclude rotation of the wells when resting on a flat surface. The assay support is provided with a leveling projection extending from the opposed face adapted to cooperate with the stabilizing leg to maintain the support level when resting on a flat surface. The sample receiving section is provided, in the space between the wells, and projecting from the first face of the support, with a dam adapted to preclude the flow of a liquid sample from one well to another. An arrangement of a plurality of detachably connected supports as well as a method of conducting an immunoassay using the above assay support is also disclosed. The assay support provides the user with the flexibility of conducting a biological assay with a chosen number large or small of samples. The assay may be performed without wasting a portion of the device, as is the case when using a 90-well microtiter plate to run a much smaller number of samples.
