  1. a Average of three different concentrations repeated three times within the day
  2. b Precision was evaluated by measuring the response of three concentrations of each drug three separate times on the same day (repeatability) and on three different days (intermediate precision)
  3. c LOD and LOQ were calculated from the standard deviation (s) of the response and the slope of the calibration curve (S) according to the following equations: LOD = 3.3(s/S) and
  4. LOQ= 10(s/S)
