SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING CONCENTRATION OF A COMPONENT IN A FLUID SAMPLE

摘要

Systems and methods for determining concentration of a component of a fluid sample are described. The system includes a reaction vessel (30), a light source (60), a detection tube (70), and a mobile terminal (80), wherein the system is configured to determine the concentration of the component in the fluid sample based on characteristics of scattered light produced from the interaction of the component with a detection compound.

1. A system for determining a concentration of a component in a fluid sample, the system comprising:
a reaction vessel configured to contain the fluid sample and a first reagent, the reaction vessel comprising at least a first window; wherein the reaction vessel is configured to receive a second reagent comprising a detection compound capable of interacting with the component in the fluid sample; and a light source configured to emit light into the reaction vessel; wherein the detection compound and the component, when interacted and exposed to the light entering the reaction vessel, produces scattered light; and wherein the first window of the reaction vessel is configured to allow the scattered light to exit the reaction vessel; wherein the first window of the reaction vessel is configured to reversibly engage a mobile terminal that detects the scattered light exiting the reaction vessel; and wherein the mobile terminal is configured to determine the concentration of the component based on characteristics of the scattered light.
