This invention relates to solid-state electrode or micro-electrode sensor apparatus for measuring certain characteristics of an aqueous sample such as a body fluid or a blood sample and more particularly to such apparatus which employs a disposable cartridge containing a sensor or a bank of sensors for such characteristics and reagents used to calibrate the sensors.

Disposable self-calibratable electrode package

A clinical chemistry analyzer system for blood chemistry analysis is disclosed. Two major parts comprise the system. One part is a discardable sensor cartridge which contains a bank of sensors, calibration fluid containers, conduit means and an external peristallically pumpable tube section. The other part is an analysis machine which interfaces with the discardable cartridge and has means to drive the peristaltic pump as well as means to interface with the sensors of the cartridge to provide a readout therefrom. The system is adapted to be made part of a heart/lung machine sustaining a patient in order to sample and monitor the venous and arterial blood flow thereof.
