The curve obtained with one-point calibra-
tion always passes through the calibration
point. The gradient of the curve is deter-
mined by the entered absorption coeffi-
cient and may therefore be somewhat in-
accurate.
One-point calibration is also advisable if
only calibration points with very minor
density differences can be recorded, for in
this case minor errors in the lab or during
sampling will significantly affect the curve.
One-point calibration may later be supple-
mented and improved by additional cali-
bration points.
