title: An instrument for the rapid determination of L-lactate in biological fluids.
abstract: An analyzer for lactate has been developed based upon an electrochemical-enzymatic method. It allows the determination of lactate within 2 to 3 minutes after sample collection. The instrument is capable of performing up to 20 measurements per hour. A minimum sample volume of 50 mul is needed. Except for the injection of the sample, all steps of the measurement are automated. The instrument is easy to operate and can also be used by nontechnical staff.
