Abstract

In the practice of clinical laboratory research polarimeters are rarely used so far. The reason is that existing visual polarimeters are inconvenient, require special sample processing and are inaccurate (at best ±0.05°, which for yellow light and at L=0.5 dm corresponds to C = ±0.2%), and universal photoelectric polarimeters are expensive (from 3500 to 66000 dollars), bulky and usually give readings in angles a, so difficult to maintain.
