Detailed Description

AbsoluteQuantitation is a class to support absolute or relative quantitation for targeted or untargeted quantitation workflows (e.g., Isotope Dilution Mass Spectrometry).

Method: A transformation model where y = ratio (analyte/IS) corresponding to peak height or peak area and x = ratio (analyte/IS) corresponding to concentration is used to fit a series of runs with standards of known concentrations that span the detection range of the instrument. The fitted transformation model can then be used to quantify the concentration of an analyte in an unknown sample given the analyte peak height or area, IS peak height or area, and IS concentration.

Terms: component: A protein, peptide, or compound fragment, transition, or whole species that is measured by e.g., LC-MS, LC-MS/MS, GC-MS, GC-MS/MS, LC-MS-TOF, HPLC-UV, HPLC-IR, etc. calibration curve: A series of standards that are used to correlate instrument measurements to actual concentrations
