Photometric measurements
Monochromatic measurement
calculation
The blank measurement is calculated using the following formula:
The absorbance is normalized using the following formula:
Bichromatic measurement
calculation
Volume correction
Volume correction is carried out for every absorbance calculation.
All absorbencies are corrected using the volume ratio ( ).
This is necessary since, with each addition of liquid, the reaction mixture becomes
more diluted, while the path length of the light and the measuring window remain
constant. Volume correction is carried out for all points.
The following equation is used for volume correction:
Raw absorbance of point 1 of an empty cuvette at the requested
wavelength λ.
Blank raw absorbance at wavelength λ. (Corresponds to a water-filled
cuvette.)
Raw absorbance of each point (n) at the requested wavelength λ.
Absorbance of water at the requested wavelength. This value is
calculated from the difference of a cuvette filled with water and an
empty cuvette (air/water calibration system check).
Normalized absorbance of each point (n) at the requested
wavelength λ.
