Analyte quantification

1. Goal of environmental analysis


2. Sampling strategy


3. Sample preparation


4. Analyte separation and detection



5. Analyte quantification

Aim: convert electronic signal from the detector to analyte mass or concentration in sample



6. Interpretation of results and error analysis
