An apparatus and method for measuring conductance are provided. The method a nd apparatus are particularly well adapted for use with a removable or replaceable cartridge (10) in a blood analysis system. The apparatus general ly involves providing a system having a first, unfiltered, conductance measurement cell and a second filtered, conductance measurement cell (20, 20 a, 20b, 20c) and a second, filtered, conductance measurement cell (21, 21a, 21b , 21c). The preferred method involves relating values measured in the two cell s for a whole blood sample and for a known calibrant together, to obtain a value, for example hematocrit, for the unknown whole blood sample. |
