Enter your data using a decimal point as the separator, double check if the input values are accurate. Four decimal places are sufficient.
This limit is set to 2% and is in most cases a reasonable setting, however it is dependent on the analytical method/equipment, calibration, and is ideally adjusted accordingly. The calculation pathway is determined based on this limit value as indicated throughout the results.
