Estimate a limit of detection (LOD)

+ +
+
+

Usage

+
lod(object, ..., alpha = 0.05, beta = 0.05, method = "default", tol = "default")
+ +

Arguments

+
+
object
+
+ A univariate model object of class lm or + rlm + with model formula y ~ x or y ~ x - 1, + optionally from a weighted regression. +
+
...
+
+ Placeholder for further arguments that might be needed by + future implementations. +
+
alpha
+
+ The error tolerance for the decision limit (critical value). +
+
beta
+
+ The error tolerance beta for the detection limit. +
+
method
+
+ The “default” method uses a prediction interval at the LOD + for the estimation of the LOD, which obviously requires + iteration. This is described for example in Massart, p. 432 ff. + The “din” method uses the prediction interval at + x = 0 as an approximation. +
+
tol
+
+ When the “default” method is used, the default tolerance + for the LOD on the x scale is the value of the smallest non-zero standard + divided by 1000. Can be set to a numeric value to override this. +
+
+ +
+

Value

+ +

+ A list containig the corresponding x and y values of the estimated limit of + detection of a model used for calibration. +

+ +
+ +
+

Description

+ +

The decision limit (German: Nachweisgrenze) is defined as the signal or + analyte concentration that is significantly different from the blank signal + with a first order error alpha (one-sided significance test). + The detection limit, or more precise, the minimum detectable value + (German: Erfassungsgrenze), is then defined as the signal or analyte + concentration where the probability that the signal is not detected although + the analyte is present (type II or false negative error), is beta (also a + one-sided significance test).

+ +
+ +
+

Note

+ +

- The default values for alpha and beta are the ones recommended by IUPAC. + - The estimation of the LOD in terms of the analyte amount/concentration + xD from the LOD in the signal domain SD is done by simply inverting the + calibration function (i.e. assuming a known calibration function). + - The calculation of a LOD from weighted calibration models requires + a weights argument for the internally used predict.lm + function, which is currently not supported in R.
