You are analyzing the effluent from a lotion plant for parabens using HPLC. You have a working standard solution with a concentration of 59.4 ppm which returned a Peak Height of 10,164 and Peak Area of 5,315. You take 44.4 L of the water sample and concentrate it to 0.3 L and analyze this solution. The Peak Height is 9,119 and the Peak Area is 6,320. What is the concentration of parabens in the effluent of the plant in mg/L to two decimal places.
