Abstract

Apparatus for optically analyzing a solution comprises a tubular enclosure for containing the solution, which enclosure is rigidly mounted on a rotor so that the longitudinal axis of the enclosure extends radially of the axis of rotation. A radially inner end of the enclosure is open and a radially outer end thereof is closed by a transparent wall to constitute two light-transmitting windows through which a light beam is radially directed when the enclosure passes a predetermined place on its path of movement. A light detector is disposable on the axis of the light beam to detect the light beam after passage through the enclosure.
