with regard to

Blood samples are taken 'with regard to' infection and acidity/base. Any number of terms can be used here - from 'to determine' to just 'for' - including with respect to, regarding, concerning. The best translation may not be the most accurate one - so what else is new.

Norwegian term (edited): med tanke p�

...to detect any infection...

I think rewriting using verbs would give the sentence a more natural English flow. For example:
Blood samples are then taken to detect any infection and (depending on the context) determine/read/gather the acidity/base level.
