This calibration method requires at least five calibrators. The concentration (or activity) of
calibrator 1 is 0, and the corresponding
is equal to

This calibration method is
applied to the calibration curve that the response increases sharply when the
concentration reaches a specific value. SeeFigure 10-9.
