where W A = weight (mg) of apocarotenal used to make the stock = chromatographic purity of apocarotenal calculated in H(a)( 2 ); 1000 = conversion of milligrams to micrograms; (3/50) = dilution of stock solution to apocarotenal intermediate solution; V AI = volume of apocarotenal intermediate solution, E(d) , used; and V Total = dilution volume. ( d ) For each calibration solution in E(f) , calculate ( 1 ) the peak area ratio for each analyte: (peak area of all- trans lutein, β-carotene, or lycopene)/(peak area of internal standard); and ( 2 ) the concentration ratio: (concentration of all- trans lutein, β-carotene, or lycopene)/(concentration of internal standard). Build a five- point calibration curve with internal standard by plotting peak area ratios against concentration ratios, with relative concentration on the x -axis. The accuracy on calibration points should be 100 ± 10% for calibration solution C1–C4, and the coefficient of determination (R 2 ) should be greater than 0.995. The calibration and calculation may be achieved through data solution; 2 = conversion of 50 mL to 100 mL; CP A
