The present invention relates to a method for preparing a dialytic solution which mixes water, fluid a or fluid B at a predetermined rate to produce a dialysate, and a diagnostic method for a conductivity sensor for an individual dialysis apparatus, and measures the concentration of a prepared dialysis solution using a concentration measuring means. The diagnostic method and the corresponding apparatus are based on the measurement of fluid a in the state where fluid B is not present in the solution.本発明は、透析液を作製するために水、流体A又は流体Bを既定の比率で混合する透析液作製装置および個人透析装置用の導電率センサのための診断方法に関し、濃度測定手段を用いて作製済み透析液の濃度を測定する。この診断方法および対応の装置は、流体Bが溶液中に存在しない状態における流体Aの測定に基づいている。
