Abstract

A method of analyzing clinically relevant sample liquids and suspensions is such that where infrared spectra of dried samples are generated and evaluated using a multivariate evaluation procedure. In the evaluation procedure, the samples to be analyzed are assigned to classes. The evaluation procedure is trained with samples of known classes to adjust the parameters of the evaluation procedures such that samples of unknown classification can be assigned to known classes. In an advantageous manner, the infrared spectra can be generated by a transmittance measurement on a dried film of the sample.
