Calibration of instrumental methods: The purpose of calibration which is required by all types of analytical methods is quantitation. It is defined as a process in which the measured analytical signal and the concentration of analyte are related to each other. The three most common methods to calibrate are:
- Calibration curve.
- Standard addition method.
- Internal standard method.
In case of standard addition method, standards are added to the aliquots of sample, keeping the matrix components same. On each solution, instrumental measurements are made to obtain instrument response ( S ).
The relation between the instrument response and concentration if they are proportional is,

In what circumstances would you use standard addition (versus a normal calibration curve) to determine the amount of an analyte in a sample? A urine sample, containing analyte Z is analysed by the standard addition method where 5 mL of the original sample was mixed with increasing amounts of a Z standard and each solution diluted to a volume of 50 mL prior to analysis. A plot of the final concentration of the standard in each of the 50 mL samples (x axis) versus The measured signal from the analysis of each 50 mL sample (on y axis) produced a straight line with the general equation: y = 44.72x + 4.06 what was the final concentration of Z in the 50 mL standard addition sample? what was the initial concentration of Z in the original urine sample?arrow_forward
