Abstract
This work presents a new and simple strategy for solving matrix effects using combination of H-point curve isolation method (HPCIM) and H-point standard addition method (HPSAM). The method uses spectrophotometric multivariate calibration data constructed by successive standard addition of an analyte into an unknown matrix. By successive standard addition of the analyte, the concentrations of remaining components (interferents) remain constant and therefore give constant cumulative spectrum for interferents in the unknown mixture. The proposed method firstly extracts such spectrum using H-point curve isolation method and then applies the obtained cumulative interferents spectrum for determination of analyte by H-point standard addition method. In order to evaluate the applicability of the method a simulated as well as several experimental data sets were tested. The method was then applied to the determination of paracetamol in pharmaceutical tablets and copper in urine samples and in a copper alloy.
