microcuvette
The microcuvette is the most sensitive component in the

system. It is therefore necessary to handle the
cuvette carefully, paying particular attention to the following
conditions:
1. Each microcuvette can only be used once!
The microcuvette is designed for single use. The cuvette is
coated during manufacturing with all the reagents necessary for
determining the hemoglobin concentration in the blood sample.
As soon as the blood is taken into the cuvette, a reaction occurs
(within 1 minute).
2. The microcuvette is sensitive to moisture!
The microcuvette will absorb moisture therefore the cuvettes are
supplied in a special airtight container that contains a drying
agent. This drying agent assures that any moisture is readily
absorbed during storage.
