The standard deviation of the ΔY-values of an analytical line pair is discussed in function of the correlation and orthogonal regression coefficients as well as of the standard deviations of Yx and Yr. It was stated that the orthogonal regression coefficient depends on the ratio sx/sr. A criterium is set up for choosing the right analytical line pair. The optimal field for the values sδy is given in function of the ratio sx/sr as well as of the correlation coefficient. |
