CO00017 Midstream Cassette 140x15mm, green w/lens is a green midstream cassette with lens for lateral flow developers who build handheld, pen-style tests on long strips. The two-piece white and green housing is 140 mm long by 15 mm wide, holds an 86 mm x 6 mm strip, and carries CT lettering beside the result window. Each pack contains 500 cassettes (top and bottom pieces), a practical quantity for prototyping, pilot builds and product launch.

Typical Uses
Midstream housings are typically held by the handle end while the sample end of the strip contacts the liquid, instead of a user pipetting drops into a sample well. The 6 mm strip width leaves more room for pads and test lines than the 4.5 mm or 5 mm midstream formats, which is helpful when you are laying out a multi-line assay.
- Housing prototype strips for environmental, food or agricultural screening assays during development
- Pilot runs and small production lots ahead of a product launch
- Color-coding one assay or customer kit against another
- Demonstration units and evaluation samples for partners
Compatible Midstream Cassettes and Products
The CO00017 shares both its body size (140 mm x 15 mm) and its strip size (86 mm x 6 mm) with the CO00018 pink version, so two assays can use the same housing geometry and still be told apart at a glance. If your strips are narrower, the CO00016 blue cassette takes 86 mm x 5 mm strips and the CO00019 blue cassette takes 86 mm x 4.5 mm strips. For conjugate development, see colloidal gold for lateral flow, or browse every housing size on the lateral flow cassettes page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What strip size fits the CO00017?
This green midstream cassette with lens is specified for strips 86 mm long by 6 mm wide. Cut your laminated cards to that size so the strip seats correctly in the housing.
Are strips or reagents included?
No. The listing covers 500 empty cassettes, each with a top and a bottom piece. You assemble your own strips into the housings.
Can I order larger volumes?
Yes. Large quantities of the green midstream cassette with lens are available on request. Contact sales@attogene.com and the team will follow up.
Why choose a green housing?
Housing color is mainly an identification and branding choice. Giving each assay its own color makes kits easier to sort during assembly and easier to recognize in the field.
