GC LOD RSD Calculator – Residual Standard Deviation

Use this GC LOD RSD calculator to determine LOD for your chromatographic method using the formula LOD = 3.3 * Sigma ÷ Slope.


GC LOD RSD Calculator Interface


What inputs are required ?

  • Min 4 x concentrations of a target compound used to build its calibration curve
  • Min 4 x peak areas of a target compound used to build its calibration curve

What the GC LOD RSD Calculator Outputs

  • Slope of the calibration curve (area as y axis – concentration as x axis)
  • Intercept of the calibration curve (area as y axis – concentration as x axis)
  • Residual standard deviation of the calibration curve (area as y axis – concentration as x axis)
  • Detection limit (LOD)
  • Quantitation limit (LOQ)
