ISTD Stability Graph Pane

Displaying the ISTD Stability Graph

The ISTD Stability Graph pane lists the recovery (%) for each ISTD element of all samples that are displayed in the Batch Table. The X-axis represents the sample name or the data file name, and the Y-axis represents the ISTD recovery (%). ISTD recovery is the percentage representation of the concentration ratio between the CalBlk sample and the ISTD element.

Data that is selected in the Batch Table is emphasized with black dots in the ISTD Stability Graph. To display data for a different sample in the ISTD Stability Graph pane, click one of the following icons on the ISTD Stability Graph pane toolbar.
