Science

Which risk increases when Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) data processing incorrectly applies baseline correction 'functions'?

A)Underestimation of peak area values
B)Systematic wavelength calibration offsets occur
C)Deconvolution artifacts in the spectrum
D)Instrument detector saturation instability arises

💡 Explanation

Incorrect baseline correction can cause underestimation of peak areas because it skews the integrated values; therefore, quantified component concentrations will be artificially low, rather than detector errors or calibration issues under spectral processing alone.
