3. Terminology
3.1 Carrying Pollution Rate
The discontinuous amount of analyte carried from one test sample reaction to another by a measurement system, which erroneously affects the performance of another test sample, is usually calculated using a specific formula by cross measuring multiple low value and high value samples given a known nominal value.
4. Overview
The electrolyte analyzer adopts the ion selective electrode method to measure the ion activity in the electrolyte solution by measuring the battery potential composed of the electrolyte solution, ion selective electrode, and reference electrode. The relationship between battery potential and specific ion activity in solution follows the Nernst equation:


Therefore, a known concentration solution is used to calibrate the electrode, a working curve is established in the electrolyte analyzer, and the electrode potential of the sample solution is measured to calculate the concentration of ions in the sample solution. The electrolyte analyzer consists of an injection system, a liquid flow system, a detection system, a data processing system, and a display and printing system, mainly used for clinical electrolyte analysis.
