When working with chromatography data in Chromperfect, the Analysis Program provides powerful tools for reviewing chromatograms. In this video, we explore the Plot Menu and its key options that help you analyze, document, and share your results.
Undo Expansion
If you’ve zoomed in on a chromatogram, the Undo Expansion option quickly reverses your last zoom, just like the backspace key.
Chromatogram Properties
This option opens a form displaying essential file details, including:
Sample name
Acquisition date
Run time and sample rate
Raw method, calibration, and SEC calibration files
Any user-defined fields
Peak Properties
Selecting a peak reveals a detailed breakdown of its characteristics:
Retention time, area, height, width, and shape measures
Linked calibration file details (component name, alarms, fit type, etc.)
Peak Calibration Plot
This tool generates a calibration plot for a selected peak, making it easy to verify calibration accuracy.
Measure Baseline Noise
By highlighting a representative baseline region, you can measure noise levels in microvolts and obtain suggested threshold values.
Export and Sharing Options
Copy to Clipboard: Save a bitmap of the active plot for use in reports or documents.
Export PNG File: Create a high-quality PNG image of your chromatogram for archiving or presentations.
Conclusion: Chromatogram Analysis
The Plot Menu in Chromperfect’s Analysis Program provides a fast and efficient way to access chromatogram details, evaluate peaks, and prepare data for reporting. These tools make it easier for labs to ensure data quality and streamline workflows.
