How to get absolute signal? Absolute Signal = Raw data - Noise Raw data = Real Spectrum without any manipulation Noise = Draw a Baseline using few anchor points on Spectrum Noise=Baseline is determined by interpolating anchor points on spectrums.
Absolute Metabolite Concentrations • Create baseline using few anchor points on spectrum. • Find metabolite peaks. • Fit Mathematical function on metabolite peaks. • Integrate peaks between the limits to calculate absolute metabolite concentrations.
Integral of Gaussian Function : Error Function Error Function Numerically: Codes developed in C and Mathematica 6.0
Conclusion: Both mathematical models have produced the same ratios. Suggestions are welcome
