         4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said optical detector reader performs a plurality of image detections of said antibiotic analyte assay. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said onboard vehicle testing environment comprises an incubation environment. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 5 , wherein said system synchronizes incubation of said incubation environment with optical detection on said antibiotic analyte assay. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein said system synchronizes a test progress with optical detection. 
     
     
         8 . An onboard vehicle system to generate an antibiotic test result from an antibiotic analyte assay, said system comprising: an optical detector reader in communication with a vehicle assembly to detect transmissions of light on said antibiotic analyte assay when contacted with a sample to generate said antibiotic test result. 
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 8 , including a user interface adapted to display said antibiotic test result. 
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein said user interface communicates said antibiotic test result to alert a user on said vehicle. 
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein said optical detector reader performs a plurality of image detections of said antibiotic analyte assay. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein said onboard vehicle testing environment comprises an incubation environment. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein said optical detector reader performs a continuous image detection of said antibiotic analyte assay. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein said antibiotic analyte assay comprises a test strip having at least one test line and at least one control line, and whereby a theoretical reflectance value is a comparison between a reflectance value at said test line and a reflectance value at said control line. 
     
     
         15 . An onboard vehicle system to generate an antibiotic test result from an antibiotic analyte assay, said system comprising: an optical detector reader in communication with a vehicle assembly to synchronize progression of said antibiotic test result development with optical detection when contacted with a sample in an onboard vehicle testing environment. 
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said optical detector reader performs a plurality of image detections of said antibiotic analyte assay. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said system synchronizes test progress with an image detection on said antibiotic analyte assay. 
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said onboard vehicle testing environment comprises an incubation environment. 
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein said optical detector detects a transmission of light passed through said antibiotic analyte assay. 
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 15 , including a user interface to communicate said antibiotic test result to alert a user on said vehicle.
