Abstract
Quantitative transmission spectroscopy where a sample liquid is applied onto a sample carrier having a net in such a manner that the liquid spreads across the meshes of the net. The liquid on the net is exposed to radiation essentially perpendicularly to the net, and the transmitted radiation is detected. The net accomplishes a dosing of the liquid in such a manner that identical meshes include identical quantities of liquid. For a given net, it is possible to derive the amount of liquid, which is located in a mesh and accessible to radiation, from a net constant. Knowing the amount of liquid detected by the radiation, it is possible to use the radiation absorption to calculate the concentration of one or several analytes contained in the sample liquid.
