Description
Return solidsFraction=1-solventFraction-waterFraction, nonvolatileMass=grossMass*solidsFraction, and volatileMass=grossMass*(solventFraction+waterFraction).
Botanical laboratory records distinguish wet mass, dry matter, carriers, extract mass, and assay response. A fraction or reference comparison depends on the chosen material basis and supplied analytical method. Voucher and monograph metadata help identify records but do not themselves authenticate a specimen or establish product quality.
Return solidsFraction=1-solventFraction-waterFraction, nonvolatileMass=grossMass*solidsFraction, and volatileMass=grossMass*(solventFraction+waterFraction).
When to use this tool
Use Extract Solvent Free Solids Factor when you need this mass-basis, assay-response, extraction, or source-record calculation for supplied laboratory data.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter grossMass, solventFraction, waterFraction. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read nonvolatileMass, volatileMass, solidsFraction. Use the output convention below.
Require nonnegative grossMass, solventFraction, and waterFraction with their sum<=1. Return solidsFraction=1-solventFraction-waterFraction, nonvolatileMass=grossMass*solidsFraction, and volatileMass=grossMass*(solventFraction+waterFraction).1

}Limitations and assumptions
- Fractions refer to the same gross mass and are assumed nonoverlapping. Nonvolatile is an accounting label under that assumption, not a verified chemical composition or a safety assessment.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Signed zero is exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the appropriate authenticated reference material, analytical protocol, and source records for a full laboratory assessment. Verify moisture basis, response factors, and extract/carrier definitions before comparing results.
