  1. aMatrix effect (%) = mean peak area of an analyte added post-precipitation (set 2)/mean peak area of an analyte in neat analyte solution (set 1) × 100
  2. bRecovery (%) = mean analyte peak area of an analyte added before precipitation (set 3)/mean peak area of an analyte added post-precipitation (set 2) × 100
  3. cProcess efficiency (%) = mean analyte peak area of an analyte added before precipitation (set 3)/mean peak area of an analyte in neat analyte solution (set 1) × 100
