Relative response and relative amount calculation

In case of single-level calibration, the relative response factor (RRF) is evaluated using response and amount values from calibration samples. Depending on the RF definition in the global calibration settings, one of the following formulas applies:

With RF defined as Response per amount:

With RF defined as Amount per Response:

where

RRF

Relative response factor

RelResponse

Relative response

RelAmount

Relative amount

The amount and concentration are calculated according to the following formulas, using the response value from the sample measurement:

With RF defined as Response per amount:

With RF defined as Amount per Response:

Amount = RRF * RelResponse * AmountISTD

where

Amount

Compound amount

RelResponse

Relative response

RRF

Relative response factor

AmountISTD

Amount of internal standard

For multi-level calibration, the relative response factor is evaluated from the calibration curve.
