Analytical mode

The Analytical mode in PSTrace for voltammetric analysis provides the possibility to do quantitative analysis by means of:

• Standard addition
• Using a calibration curve

When the program is set to 'Analytical mode', extra tabs called 'Analysis' and 'Analytical result' are added.

The 'Analysis' tab is used to specify the parameters of the standard solution as well as the analyte(s) or component(s) to be determined. The program allows measurement of up to four analytes using up to four standard solutions. The 'Analytical results' tab is used to show the standard addition or calibration curve(s) and the calculated peak heights as well as the obtained concentration.

The program allows subtraction of a separately measured blank voltammogram. This blank voltammogram can be measured before the other curves or can be loaded as data file.
