Calibration
11.1 Introduction to Quantitative Analysis
A HAPSITE ER method can be developed to collect and quantify sample data.
Quantitative analysis involves creating a calibration library of target compounds,
and associating target compound responses with concentration results. This library
contains the analyte name, analyte area, the retention time and the response factor
used to calculate the concentration of the analyte.
11.2 Calibrating a Method
Wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
as advised in the MSDS of the standard(s) being used.
1 Prepare the standards as necessary to achieve the desired concentrations.
2 Run each standard separately on HAPSITE ER using the desired method. Each
standard will have its own separate run. The method used for HAPSITE ER can
be a default method or custom method created with the Method Editor. See
Chapter 11, Calibration.
NOTE: All other components of method development described in Chapter 10,
Method Editor must be made prior to running the standards.
3 Enter the concentration of the standard and a description on the Data File
Information window during each sample run. (See Figure 11-1.)
