    Abstract: A method for segregating qualities of an agricultural product during processing of the product comprises the step of setting a desired range of a measurement value (2). The measurement value represents a property of the product and defines a first quality of the product for which the measurement value is inside the range and a second quality of the product for which the measurement value is outside the range. The method further comprises the step of analyzing (4) the quality of the product that is being processed. The step of analyzing comprises the steps of continuously extracting samples of the product (4a), irradiating each sample by electromagnetic radiation (4d), spatially separating electromagnetic radiation of different wavelengths (4e), and detecting electromagnetic radiation emitted from the sample (4f). The step of detecting produces intensity signals indicative of detected electromagnetic radiation of different wavelengths. The step of analyzing further comprises the steps of determining a sample value of said property of the product from the intensity signals, and determining a measurement value (4g) from at least one sample value. The method further comprises the step of separating the product of said first quality from the product of said second quality on the combine.

    Abstract: A method of reducing the susceptibility to interference of the measured value from a measuring instrument. The measuring instrument is of such a type where a test object is subjected to measurements with respect to a plurality of primary test object properties. Before the actual measurement, the effect has been mapped, by a calibration procedure, which these properties have on the measured value regarding a secondary property of the test object. The calibration procedure is effected on the one hand in that measurements by means of the same or similar instruments are carried out on a sufficient number of test objects each having a known value of the secondary property, and with a sufficient variation of the other test object properties affecting the secondary property, so as to cover expected variations of said properties, and, on the other hand, in that the thus obtained measured values of the primary properties are processed mathematically in such manner that a number of calibration constants in a mathematical relationship between the primary properties and the secondary property are generated. During the calibration procedure, a variation of one or several properties of the measuring instrument, or of representations thereof in the processing of the measured values, is introduced intentionally, said variation having the same order of magnitude as or being substantially greater than expected variations, when one or several test objects are being measured, without such information being supplied to the instrument.

    Abstract: A fully functional analyzing unit is included within the fluid-tight housing of a dialyzer which may be immersed in the medium to be analyzed. An opening in the housing is closed by a dialysis membrane. A channel defining body cooperates with the membrane to define a flow channel. The unit includes a carrier fluid reservoir and a carrier pump for generating a flow of carrier fluid through the flow channel. By dialysis via the membrane, the flow of carrier fluid is transformed into a flow of sample fluid which is received in a reaction channel. Reagent fluid from at least one reagent reservoir is delivered to the reaction channel by at least one reagent pump, and a detecting device is coupled to the reaction channel for detecting a reaction product originating from a reaction between the reagent fluid and the sample fluid and for generating a corresponding detection signal. Effluent from the reaction channel is received in a waste reservoir. Average volume flow in the reaction channel during operation is less than 100 .mu.l/min, allowing for at least 30 days of uninterrupted operation. The device is suitable for in situ real-time measurement of plant nutrient salts in process waters of waste water treatment plants.
