The normalized concentration of a compound refers to the concentration of the compound in relation to the sum of concentrations of all detected compounds.
The calculation depends on the status of the Apply correction factors to normalized concentrations check box. This check box is part of the calibration settings in the processing method.
If correction factors are applied, the Normalized concentration of a compound is calculated as follows, depending on the concentration calculation:
Or
If correction factors are not applied, the normalized concentration is calculated as:
where | |
CN |
Normalized concentration |
Mcomp |
Compound specific multiplier, set in the processing method |
A |
Amount |
Msample |
Sample specific multipliers, set in the injection list or sequence table |
Dsample |
Sample-specific dilution factors, set in the injection list or sequence table |
f |
Normalization factor, defined in the processing method |
