  2. Detection limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detection_limit

    These include the instrument detection limit (IDL), the method detection limit (MDL), the practical quantitation limit (PQL), and the limit of quantitation (LOQ). Even when the same terminology is used, there can be differences in the LOD according to nuances of what definition is used and what type of noise contributes to the measurement and ...

  3. Calibration curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration_curve

    A calibration curve plot showing limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), dynamic range, and limit of linearity (LOL).. In analytical chemistry, a calibration curve, also known as a standard curve, is a general method for determining the concentration of a substance in an unknown sample by comparing the unknown to a set of standard samples of known concentration. [1]

  4. Griess test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griess_test

    Using a spectrophotometer, it is possible to quantitatively determine the nitrite concentration. The detection limit of the Griess test generally ranges between 0.02 and 2 μM, depending on the exact details of the specific components used in the Griess reagent.

  5. Analytical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_chemistry

    A calibration curve plot showing limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), dynamic range, and limit of linearity (LOL) A general method for analysis of concentration involves the creation of a calibration curve. This allows for the determination of the amount of a chemical in a material by comparing the results of an unknown ...

  6. Neutron activation analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_activation_analysis

    NAA can detect up to 74 elements depending upon the experimental procedure, with minimum detection limits ranging from 0.1 to 1x10 6 ng g −1 depending on element under investigation. Heavier elements have larger nuclei, therefore they have a larger neutron capture cross-section and are more likely to be activated.

  7. Electron paramagnetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_paramagnetic...

    Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) or electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy is a method for studying materials that have unpaired electrons.The basic concepts of EPR are analogous to those of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), but the spins excited are those of the electrons instead of the atomic nuclei.

  8. Laser absorption spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_absorption_spectrometry

    Laser absorption spectrometry (LAS) refers to techniques that use lasers to assess the concentration or amount of a species in gas phase by absorption spectrometry (AS). Optical spectroscopic techniques in general, and laser-based techniques in particular, have a great potential for detection and monitoring of constituents in gas phase .

  9. Secondary ion mass spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_ion_mass...

    Detection limits for most trace elements are between 10 12 and 10 16 atoms per cubic centimetre, [12] depending on the type of instrumentation used, the primary ion beam used and the analytical area, and other factors. Samples as small as individual pollen grains and microfossils can yield results by this technique.
