Injector linearity and accuracy is performed to determine whether the injection volume delivered is linear
within the specified criteria. The system makes several injections using four different injection volumes of
one concentration of caffeine from the same vial, and then Empower plots the area against the amount.
The coefficient of determination (R^2) is used to measure the injector linearity and the accuracy is
determined by dividing the y-intercept by the slope.
The qualification passes if the R^2 > or = 0.9990 and Accuracy is < or =1.0 µL.
