RE: MDA Equations



An oldie but a goodie - I often refer to "Limits for Qualitative
Detection and Quantitative Determination" by L.A. Currie, Analytical
Chemistry Vol 40 No 3 March 1968.


>I seem to recall a paper in one of our magazines/journals etc., in the past
>18 months or so that compared a variety of commonly used forms of MDA and LLD
>equations. The paper included the derivation of of several of the equation
>forms and provided the assumptions the equations were valid under.  Finally,
>the results of the equations were calculated under a given set of conditions
>and printed in a table for comparison.
