Abstract

See full text

A photometer readhead is used to measure concentrations within a test sample of preselected color-developed analytes having different characteristic absorption bands. The photometer readhead comprises an artificial light source for illuminating the test sample, a plurality of light-emitting diodes for detecting light transmitted through or reflected from the test sample, and a housing assembly for enclosing and supporting the plurality of light-emitting diodes. The plurality of light-emitting diodes have spectral responses encompassing respective ones of the different characteristic absorption bands of the preselected color-developed analytes. The plurality of light-emitting diodes preferably include a first light-emitting diode having a spectral response in red portion of the visible light spectrum; a second light-emitting diode having a spectral response in the blue portion of the visible light spectrum, a third light-emitting diode having a spectral response in the green portion of the visible light spectrum, and a fourth light-emitting diode having a spectral response in the infrared light spectrum.
