1. A method of providing a service to a requester of determining the concentration of at least one constituent in an extemporaneously compounded sample having an unknown concentration for the requester, comprising the steps of:

  • accepting a request from the requester for determining a concentration of at least one constituent in an extemporaneously compounded sample having at least one constituent at an unknown concentration;

    performing a spectrographic analysis of a sample having the at least one constituent at at least one predetermined concentration, said spectrographic analysis providing identifying data for a range of concentrations of the at least one constituent;

    storing the obtained spectrographic analysis of the sample having the at least one constituent at at least one predetermined concentration in a retrievable form in a database comprising identifying data of ranges of concentrations of at least one constituent;

    performing a spectrographic analysis of the extemporaneously compounded sample having at least one constituent at an unknown concentration, said spectrographic analysis providing identifying data for at least one concentration of the at least one constituent;

    comparing the spectrographic analysis of the extemporaneously compounded sample having at least one constituent at an unknown concentration to the spectrographic analysis of the sample having the at least one constituent at at least one predetermined concentration stored in a retrievable form;

    mathematically calculating a concentration of the at least one constituent in the extemporaneously compounded sample having at least one constituent at an unknown concentration from the comparison of the recited spectrographic analyses data; and

    transmitting the calculated concentration of the at least one constituent of the extemporaneously compounded sample having at least one constituent at an unknown concentration to the requester.
