ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for measuring a characteristic which is a function of the concentration of one or more chemical species in a sample fluid, examples being the concentration of sodium ion or potassium ion in blood, makes use of a discardable or disposable measuring device comprising one or more sensors, an example of a relevant type of sensor being a potentiometric electrode, one or more conditioning (e.g. calibration) fluid chambers and, optionally, a sample fluid chamber, the sensor(s) being movable relative to the chamber(s), or vice versa, so as permit conditioning of the sensor(s) in a conditioning fluid chamber and exposure of a sensing surface part of the sensor(s) to a sample fluid.
