Abstract: An analyzer having an inner chassis surrounded by a housing includes sample and dilution probes, a mixing housing including first and second mixing chambers, a flow cytometer including a flow cell, and sample and sheath pumps configured to perform first and second pluralities of tasks, respectively. The first plurality of tasks includes: aspirating sample into the sample probe, dispensing sample from the sample probe into the first and second mixing chambers, delivering first sample-dilution fluid mixture to the flow cell, and delivering second sample-dilution fluid mixture to the flow cell. The second plurality of tasks includes: dispensing sheath to the flow cell in cooperation with the delivery of the first sample-dilution fluid mixture to the flow cell, and dispensing sheath to the flow cell in cooperation with the delivery of the second sample-dilution fluid mixture to the flow cell.

Abstract: A method for calibrating sensitivity of a photometer includes measuring, by a double-beam spectrophotometer, an absorbance spectrum of a control solution, which has been diluted and includes a control substance. The method further includes linearly regressing the absorbance spectrum of the control solution over a predetermined range of wavelengths and determining whether a first slope of the linearly regressed absorbance spectrum of the control solution falls within a range of slopes of lines obtained from linearly regressing absorbance spectra of a plurality of reference solutions over the predetermined range of wavelengths. A concentration of chromophore in each reference solution is known and the absorbance spectra of the plurality of reference solutions have been obtained by the double-beam spectrophotometer.
