  • Method and apparatus for quantitation of relevant blood parameters
    Patent number: 5567869
    Abstract: A method for quantitation of blood parameters comprises the steps: provision of a sample of plasma, serum or blood, entering the sample into a cuvette with an internal dimension less than 1 mm, illuminating the sample by a light source, measuring and recording the changes of light properties caused by the sample as a function of time, calculating parameters of the recorded light signal/time curve such as slopes, extreme values, and the time distance between such extreme values, and interpreting the parameters as blood parameters. For the measurements, an apparatus is used comprising a cuvette (16, 17) with an internal dimension less than 1 mm, a light source (7, 9), means (8, 10) for measuring currently a light signal from the sample, means for recording the measured light signal values, and means for calculating parameters of the thereby defined light signal versus time graph.
