Abstract

The objectives of this paper will be to discuss the issues related to the determination of the limits of detection (LOD) in laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) analytical applications. The derivation of the commonly used ‘3-sigma over slope’ rule and its evolution towards the new official definition recently adopted by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) will be illustrated. Methods for extending the calculation of the LOD to LIBS multivariate analysis will also be discussed, using as an example the detection of Cu traces in cast iron samples by LIBS.
