Dear all,
My question maybe funny for you but I am a beginner so I realy need a good start. I am developing an HPLC method, could any of you suggest me where I can find a good protocol to develop a method? I read many books but they are tooo general for me, I need the detailed protocol, e.g how many sample I have to prepare for calibration curve, what I have to do to test accuracy, specificity...and the requirements for RSD, for % recovery...
All your suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Thanks Anon,
The link really helps me to understand the basic ones. However, I still don't know how to calculate the LOD or LOQ. Could you pls clarify for me "standard deviation of blank readings " or "standard deviation of regression line", what I have to do to get this SD?
Thanks in advance!

LOD and LOQ are required only for validation of analytical methods for impurituies.
