Page 9: Intended Use
Intended Use Intended Use The Hemo Control measuring system is intended to be used for the quantitative determination of hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations in human blood. It consists of the Hemo Control photometer and Hemo_Control Hemoglobin Microcuvettes. Using the reagent filled microcuvette a small amount of arterial, venous or capillary blood is taken up by capillary action. -
