Matrix effect that is proportional to the measured quantity value of the measurand.
Notes:
- A multiplicative matrix effect can be compensated for by following a measurement procedure with standard addition.
- A multiplicative matrix effect affects the slope, not the intercept, of a linear calibration curve.
- The effect is sometimes termed "rotational matrix effect" or "proportional interference".
- A multiplicative matrix effect may originate from non-analyte components of the measurement standard if these contribute to the signal attributed to the analyte.
