Abstract: The value of background blackening in a point corresponding to the wavelength of signal as well as the standard deviation for the variation of spectral background in the proximity of this wavelength was determined by the method of regression analysis. The described procedure enables to determine the limit of detection even if the background intensity in the proximity of the investigated spectral line varies with wavelength.
