what are the difference between calibration sensitivity and analytical sensitivity -

Correct answer-calibration sensitivity is the slope of a calibration curve at the

concentration of interest while analytical sensitivity is a response to the noise ratio

how to calculate calibration sensitivity - Correct answer-y=mx+b (m is the

calibration sensitivity)

graph concentration vs mean analytical signal

how to find the analytical sensitivity - Correct answer-As (concentation) =

calibration sensitivity/SD [ ]

how to find the coefficient of variation for the mean of each of the replicate sets -

Correct answer-CV = SD/Average x 100

how to find the detection limit for method? - Correct answer-

3.3*SD(blank)/calibration sensitivity

voltage in a series - Correct answer-Vt = Vc + Vb + Va
