  • Page 19: Introduction

    60 - 100 1/0.1 Principles of Operation The OPTI CCA-TS is a microprocessor-controlled medical instrument measuring optical fluorescence from discrete sensors called optical electrodes (optodes). A disposable, single-use cassette contains all of the elements needed for calibration, sample measurement and waste containment. Specific calibration information from the cassette is scanned into the analyzer by holding the cassette package in front of the bar code scanner.
