<p>Appts. consists of a constant temperature bath (2) filled with water (80), a heater (8) a stirrer (12), and a detecting vessel (14) filled with any one of liquid paraffin, silicon oil or perfluorocarbon (82). The detecting vessel (14) has a calorimetric unit inside, which is contained in an aluminium pole (24) and consists of a reference heater (16) and a sample passage pipe (18) sandwiched by a thermocouple (20). A number of samples, such as serum and red blood cells, are supplied via supply pipes (32), heated up to a constant bath temperature, and mixed together in a mixer (30). The amount of heat generated due to the mixing is then measured by the thermocouple (20).</p> |
