Method for determining a cuvette form correction value

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for determining a cuvette form correction value for a laboratory analysis cuvette filled with a liquid reagent and having a transparent cuvette body including a vertical wall and a bottom wall, including the method steps: determining the liquid reagent volume of the liquid reagent filled into the laboratory analysis cuvette, optically determining the liquid reagent level of the liquid reagent in the laboratory analysis cuvette by a level determination camera, calculating a horizontal inner width of the laboratory analysis cuvette from the determined liquid reagent volume and the determined liquid reagent level by an electronic control, and calculation of the form correction value from the calculated horizontal inner width and a reference inner width of the laboratory analysis cuvette by the electronic control.
