Abstract

A cuvette for the determination of a chemical component of a fluid by photo evaluation has two planar-shaped parts parallel to one another at least one of which is transparent in the spectral range used for the evaluation. A planar distance piece of a filamentary reticulation for receiving the fluid therein spaces the planar-shaped parts apart to set the length of the light path through the cuvette for the photo evaluation.
