Can this be "calculate","obtain" or "set up"?
I'm not quite sure which word is appropriate in this context.

determine
I agree with Daisuke. This is another option with more general meaning of "求める".

Comment: "Thank you daisuke and Yoshiro! Yes, I just remembered seeing "determine" in many clinical trial doccuments. Both answers are very helpful, but I'm very sorry that I can't give points for both of you (I wish I could). I'd go for determine to be general, as I'm not sure if they actually calcurate.
Thanks again daisuke for pointing out "set up" is used for "方程式""

calculate optical purity
In this specific case, "calculate" will be best.
"set up" is usually used with "equations" (方程式).

Katsuhiko KAKUNO, Ph.D.
: I guess in the context "determin" is better but insufficient. The auther want to discribe that they have check the stereochemical purity. The existence of l- or d- conpound in d- or i- are examined. They want to say so.
