Preferred Label : calibration function;
Detailed label : calibration function in analysis;
IUPAC definition : The functional (not statistical) relationship for the chemical measurement process,
relating the expected value of the observed (gross) signal or response variable Ey
to the analyte amount x. The corresponding graphical display for a single analyte
is referred to as the calibration curve. When extended to additional variables or
analytes which occur in multicomponent analysis, the 'curve' becomes a calibration
surface or hypersurface.;
