RESUMEN

A new method to obtain the signal associated with an electrophoretic blank is presented to be included in the calibration procedures. The signal assigned to the blank is obtained by direct integration of the background noise using extrapolated values of the base-peak width at different concentrations in order to obtain the zero concentration. Detection limits that are better adjusted to a statistical evaluation are thus implemented, as recommended by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). The detection limit has been examined for a series of linear alkyl benzenesulfonates (C10-C13) and total linear alkyl benzenesulfonates that are widely used in many different commercial products.
