Confir

39、mation occurs by isolating the parent ion,fragmenting it to the product ion, and relating it to the retentiontime in the calibration standard.12.2.2 The calibration software manual shall be consulted touse the software correctly. The quantitation method is set as anexternal calibration using the pea

40、k areas in ppb or ppm units aslong as the analyst is consistent. Concentrations may becalculated using the data system software to generate linearregression or quadratic calibration curves. The calibrationcurves may be either linear or quadratic depending on yourinstrument. Forcing the calibration c

41、urve through the origin isnot recommended. Each calibration point used to generate thecurve shall have a calculated percent deviation less than 30%from the generated curve.12.2.3 Linear calibration may be used if the coefficient ofdetermination, r2, is 0.98 for the analyte. The point of originis exc

42、luded, and a fit weighting of 1/X is used in order to givemore emphasis to the lower concentrations. If one of thecalibration standards other than the high or low point causesthe r2of the curve to be 0.99 for the analyte. The point oforigin is excluded, and a fit weighting of 1/X is used in orderto

43、give more emphasis to the lower concentrations. If one ofthe calibration standards, other than the high or low, causes thecurve to be 0.99. Inthis event, the reporting range shall be modified to reflect thischange.12.2.5 The retention time window of the SRM transitionsshall be within 5% of the reten

44、tion time of the analyte in amidpoint calibration standard. If this is not the case, re-analyzethe calibration curve to determine if there was a shift inretention time during the analysis, and re-inject the sample. Ifthe retention time is still incorrect, refer to the analyte as anunknown.12.2.6 A m

45、idpoint calibration check standard shall be ana-lyzed at the end of each batch of 20 samples or within 24 hoursafter the initial calibration curve was generated. This endcalibration check shall be the same calibration standard thatwas used to generate the initial curve. The results from the endcalib

46、ration check standard shall have a percent deviation lessthan 30% from the calculated concentration for the targetanalyte and surrogate. If the results are not within these criteria,the problem shall be corrected, and either all samples in thebatch shall be re-analyzed against a new calibration curv

47、e orthe affected results shall be qualified with an indication thatthey do not fall within the performance criteria of the testmethod. If the analyst inspects the vial containing the endcalibration check standard and notices that the sample evapo-rated affecting the concentration, a new end calibrat

48、ion checkstandard shall be made and analyzed. If this new end calibra-tion check standard has a percent deviation less than 30% fromthe calculated concentration for the target analyte and surro-gate, the results shall be reported unqualified if all other qualitycontrol parameters are acceptable.12.3

49、 If a laboratory has not performed the test before or ifthere has been a major change in the measurement system, forexample, new analyst or new instrument, perform a precisionand bias study to demonstrate laboratory capability and verifythat all technicians are adequately trained and follow allrelevant safety procedures.12.3.1 Analyze at least four replicates of a wipe samplecontaining TDG and TDPbetween Levels 3-6 of the calibrationrange in the final extract concentration.
