THE OPTIMAL ABSORPTION OF BILIRUBIN USING AN OPTICAL FIBRE SENSOR

This paper describes an optical fiber sensor for the monitoring of bilirubin concentration and commonly called jaundice An open path optical technique is used to analyze the absorption lines of bilirubin within the Ultra Violet/ Visible region. By using a wavelength corresponding to a bilirubin ab...
