Method: Vanzetti, G. An azidemethemoglobin method for hemoglobin determination in blood. J. Lab. Clin. Med. 67, 116-26 (1966).
Principle: The reaction in the microcuvette is a modified azidemethemoglobin reaction. The erythrocyte membranes are disintegrated by sodium deoxycholate, releasing the hemoglobin. Sodium nitrite converts the hemoglobin iron from the ferrous to the ferric state to form methemoglobin, which then combines with azide to form azidmethemoglobin. The photometer uses a double wavelength measuring method, 570 nm and 880 nm, for compensation of turbidity.

Method: van Kempen E J and Zijlstra W G. Spectrophotometry of hemoglobin and hemoglobin derivativies. Advances in Clinical Chemistry, vol 23, 199-257 (1983).
Principle: Hemoglobin concentration is determined by measuring the absorbance of hemolyzed blood at the Hb/HbO2 isobestic point. Deoxycholate hemolyses the erythrocytes and hemoglobin is released. This method correlates well with the reference method for hemoglobin determination (the ICSH method). The photometer uses a double wavelength measuring method, 506 nm and 880 nm, for compensation of turbidity.
