Question

How would I compare using peak heights vs peak areas for GC quantitation?

Thanks

Answer 1

Either method works. Which method you select depends on how you graphed your calibration graph using standard solutions over a range of concentrations. For more information, download the online PDF file:

You can compare the two methods by graphing the data from your set of standard solutions both ways and determining the concentration of an unknown using each graph.
