F. Calculations
Before calculating myo-inositol concentrations in samples,
compare the myo-inositol standard peaks with the myo-inositol
sample peaks and confirm that there are no interfering
compounds and that themyo-inositol sample peak areas or heights
are within the range of the myo-inositol standard peak areas or
heights. The concentration of myo-inositol cannot be calculated
if there are interferences or if the separation is poor. The
myo-inositol retention time should be 11 to 13 min depending on
the individual analytical column.
See
Figures
2011.18C
and
D
for typical standard and sample chromatograms, respectively.

where C
W
is the concentration of the working standard solution
in mg/L; W is the weight, in mg, of myo-inositol standard
weighed; 0.05 is the dilution volume of the stock standard
in L; 1/10 is the intermediate standard dilution (10 to 100 mL);
A
1
is the aliquot of intermediate standard used, in mL; V
1
is
the dilution volume of the working standard in mL; A
2
is the
aliquot of working standard used, in mL, if applicable; and
V
2
is the dilution volume of the working standard in mL, if
applicable; and p is the standard purity in mg/mg.
