Abstract

A liquid analysis system for a photometric determination of an analyte in a liquid sample includes an analyzer comprising a photometer, an RFID parameter reading device and an identifier reading device, and a cuvette package comprising an RFID parameter transponder and a plurality of test cuvettes of one batch. Each test cuvette comprises a reagent. Batch identification and batch-specific reagent data are stored in the RFID parameter transponder. Each test cuvette comprises a batch-specific identifier including a batch identification. The batch identification is configured to be read by the identifier reading device.
