Abstract
A flow cell for absorbance detection with at least two different optical path lengths. It increases the range of analyte concentrations which can be measured compared with a conventional single path flow cell. Light from the two paths is combined onto the same photodetector. Calibration with known samples allows analyte concentrations to be measured. The dual or multi-path length flow cell may be used in equipment designed for single path flow cells.
