Optical nonlinearity in measurement of urea and uric acid in blood
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Z-scan technique is a simple and effective tool for determining nonlinear optical properties of materials. This technique is utilized in measurement of urea and uric acid in blood. The nonlinear refractive index of urea and uric acid are found to vary linearly with concentration. Hence by calculating the nonlinear refractive index it is possible to measure their concentration in the sample. The results of this method are found to be in good agreement with the conventional colorimetric method.

Optimal Wavelength Selection in Ultraviolet Spectroscopy for the Estimation of Toxin Reduction Ratio during Hemodialysis
Introduction The concentration of substances, including urea, creatinine, and uric acid, can be used as an index to measure toxic uremic solutes in the blood during dialysis and interdialytic intervals. The on-line monitoring of toxin concentration allows for the clearance measurement of some low-molecular-weight solutes at any time during hemodialysis.The aim of this study was to determine the...
