Matrix Effect Calculation

Matrix Effect(%)=Peak area from samples spiked in matrix from biological blank/Peak area from samples spiked in matrix from water x 100.

Here you need to extract the blank biological matrix (e.g., plasma, tissue, urine, feces) or water first, then spike your drug into the matrix followed by injection.

Please use the original peak area for your calculation. DO NOT use the calculated concentrations.
