            ■ Measuring range < 1 mg/L
            When limits of detection and determination
            are desired that are significantly lower than 1
            mg/L, it is  possible to  increase  the injection
            volume to 20 µL. A concentration range of 0.5
            – 5.0 mg/L was selected for this purpose.
