Measuring process
7.1 Endpoint measurement
The absorbance is measured after reaching the endpoint.
It is measured against the reagent’s blank count.
Parameters: Haemoglobin SLS (HB SLS), Erythrocytes (ERY), Haematocrit (HCT),
Haemoglobin (HiCN)
Calculation: Concentration = Absorbance x Factor
The erythrocyte and haematocrit counts are determined using stored reference
curves.
7.2
Endpoint measurement with consideration of the sample blank value and
pre-programmed measuring time
After measuring the sample blank value, the colour reaction in the cuvette is
started and the endpoint absorbance is measured after a specified time has
elapsed.
Parameters: Bilirubin (BIL), Neonatal bilirubin (BIL N)
Calculation: Concentration = Absorbance x Factor
Measurement time: 2 Minutes
The samples are measured in succession:
Sample 01: Measurement 1 (sample blank value)
Sample 01: Measurement 2 (result)
Sample 02: Measurement 1 (sample blank value)
Sample 02: Measurement 2 (result)
etc.
