Abstract
An apparatus as provided for use in carrying out electrochemiluminescence test measurements. The apparatus includes a cell to contain an electrochemiluminescence sample fluid. A working electrode is provided within the cell and is coupled to a supply of electrical energy to apply the same to the sample fluid. A temperature effect adjustment system serves either to adjust a temperature of the electrochemiluminescent sample fluid so that it is within a predetermined range, or else adjusts an output signal representing light produced through electrochemiluminescence of the sample fluid based on the temperature of the sample fluid.
