vacancy chromatography This LC technique utilizes an indirect
detection method for quantitation.

vacuum manifold An apparatus that is used in conjunction with
the simultaneous processing of multiple SPE samples.

validation The process of statistically determining that the results
obtained by conducting a defined test protocol meet predetermined
accuracy, precision, linearity, repeatability, recovery, robustness, and
ruggedness values.

van Deemter equation A mathematical equation defining the
relationship between the plate height, H, in a column and the linear
velocity of the mobile phase through the column, u:

This diagram shows the individual contributions (various dashed lines) to the plate
height in the van Deemter equation. The total H is shown by the solid curve.
