How does SLIMStat treat less than (<) values, e.g., if a degradation product is less than the limit of detection?
• A: SLIMStat gives the user four options, easily selected by clicking a radio button: 1. Ignore. The value will not be used in any calculations. 2. Value. The < sign will be ignored and the value will be used verbatim. 3. Value divided by two. The value will be divided by 2.0 and the result used. 4. Zero. The value will be replaced by zero.
