Error Propagation and Optimal Performance in Multicomponent Analysis.

Abstract

A study of error propagation for multicomponent analysis in the presence of sample related interferences by the generalized standard addition method has been made. The results of the examination have lead to an alternate experimental design and optimal computation algorithms which are tested using a four component spectrophotometric analysis. Additionally, the theory describes fundamental constraints to multicomponent analysis in the presence of chemical, physical and spectral interferences. (Author)
