A method for analyzing platelets is described. In the method, a measurement sample is prepared by mixing a sample and a dye for staining platelets. The dye is selected from the group consisting of Capri blue, Nile blue and brilliant cresyl blue. Upon irradiating cells in the measurement sample with light, scattered light and fluorescence emitted from the cells are measured. The platelets are detected on the basis of the scattered light and the fluorescence. A reagent kit and a reagent are also described.

A discharge light comprising a light emitting tube (1) encapsulating a discharging medium, an inner electrode (2) disposed in the light emitting tube, and an outer electrode unit (4) fixed to the outside of the light emitting tube. The outer electrode unit comprises a plurality of outer electrodes (4b) arranged intermittently in the axial direction of the tube and having a part abutting on the outer wall face of the light emitting tube, and a part (4c) engaging with the light emitting tube while coupling the outer electrodes thereof integrally, wherein the engaging part clamps the light emitting tube at a part thereof thus holding the outer electrode unit around the light emitting tube. The light emitting tube is lighted by applying a voltage between the inner electrode and the outer electrode. The outer electrode can be fixed readily to the light emitting tube and the plurality of outer electrodes can be held against the light emitting tube with high accuracy.

A meter is disclosed wherein a light source is disposed behind the face thereof. A light path from the light source is defined in part by a reflective surface on the needle which directs light from the light source onto a portion of the face that is in the immediate vicinity of the needle. The reflecting surface is opaque which causes the needle to appear as a silhouette over the illuminated portion of the face.
