English term or phrase: specimen wicking

Buenos días,

Espero que puedan ayudarme con la siguiente expresión al español: “specimen wicking”, relacionada con un ensayo de flujo lateral para detectar el antígeno criptocócico. Muchas gracias:

“The test uses specimen wicking to capture gold-conjugated, anti-CrAg monoclonal antibodies and gold-conjugated control antibodies deposited on the test membrane. The antibody-antigen complex continues to wick up the membrane where it will interact with the test line, which has immobilized anti-CrAg monoclonal antibodies. With proper flow and reagent reactivity the wicking of any specimen, positive or negative, will cause the control antibody to move to the control line.”
