A hemoglobinometer is a portable device that measures hemoglobin concentration in blood samples. It functions on the principle of spectrophotometry, analyzing how light interacts with the blood solution. The device expresses results in grams per 100 milliliters of blood. It is widely used for screening anemia and monitoring patients under treatment. Its portability makes it suitable for use in hospitals, clinics, and field health camps. Quick and reliable results have made the hemoglobinometer a valuable diagnostic tool.
