title: Deconvolution techniques for rapid flow-injection analysis.
abstract: In the optimum configuration of any flow-injection analysis system there is a maximum experimentally attainable sampling rate. Any attempt to increase this sampling rate will result in overlapping output peaks. Use of deconvolution techniques to separate the overlapping peaks allows the sampling rate to be increased. Fourier-transform deconvolution and an iterative curve-fitting deconvolution technique have been compared with simulated as well as experimental data. It has been shown that the iterative curve-fitting technique is less sensitive than the Fourier-transform deconvolution to random noise.
