Retention time shifts in second-order calibration-assisted chromatographic analysis seriously impact the modeling and quantitative accuracies in complex systems. In this work, three second-order methods, i.e. alternating trilinear decomposition (ATLD) algorithm, multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS), alternating trilinear decomposition-assisted multivariate curve resolution (ATLD-MCR), were compared their performance to process liquid chromatographic data in the presence of retention time shifts and overlapped peaks. Firstly, the validation samples contain five tea ...
