Regression Methods

There are seven regression types for calculating the standard curve:

Logistic-5PL

Logistic-4PL

Linear

Cubic spline

Point-to-point

Linear (semi-log)

Point-to-point (semi-log)

The minimum number of nonzero standards required for each regression
method type is shown in the following table.

Figure 155. Example of two Logistic-5PL curves, for standards on the current
plate, and external standards

If you do not have the minimum number of standards for the selected method,
an error message will be displayed in red below the standard curve.
