Internal Standard an Important Analyte Use in Drug Analysis by Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry- An Article

Abstract

Internal standard is an external compound which is mixed with targeted analytical solution and matrix as a constant concentration and use for preparing calibration standard curve by using ratio of analyte area and internal standard area with analyte concentration and internal standard concentration. This calibration curve used for quantification of unknown concentration of anlayte of interest. This article provide necessary information about internal standard like its selection procedure, characterization, types and response factor , to all analyst who are connected with drug analysis. This article is more important and I think first article which focuses a clear idea about internal standard use in drug analysis.
