| PLS is compared with standard Univariate Calibration in the analysis of brass. In this case, the justification is speed of development of calibration - good traditional calibration curves take much longer than PLS. For both analyses, the Cu figure was the difference between the sum of the other calculated concentrations and 100%. The conclusion is that while the CC gave better results on the unknown sample, the PLS gave acceptable results for the time invested. | |||||
