The Effect of Haematocrit on Measurement of the Mid-Infrared Refractive Index of Plasma in Whole Blood

Recent advances suggest that miniaturised mid-infrared (MIR) devices could replace more time-consuming, laboratory-based techniques for clinical diagnostics. This work uses Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy to show that the MIR complex refractive index of whole blood varies across a range of h...
