The background interfering absorbance at the analytical wavelength is
then estimated using linear interpolation (see Figure A2).This method
represents an improvement over the single-wavelength reference
technique because it corrects for any background absorbance that
exhibits a linear relationship to the wavelength. In many cases, if the
wavelength range is narrow, it will be a reasonable correction for
non-linear background absorbances such as that resulting from
scattering of from a complex matrix
.
