Peak table
The following parameters can be selected for peak table output with
determination results:
Quantification method
Selection of the method to calculate concentra-
tions of components:
Response normalization
The method normalizes the sum of responses
for all peaks of the chromatogram to the
NORM
factor entered in the
Total % for normali-
zation

All peaks are calculated and reported no matter
whether they have been recognized or not.
The peak table includes the following columns:

Normalized concentration
The method normalizes the sum of absolute
concentrations for all peaks of the chroma-
togram to the NORM factor entered in the

As long as no universal component is defined,
only peaks with non-zero concentrations are
listed.

Absolute concentration
This quantification method reports raw quantity
(absolute concentration) of the component that
is calculated directly from the calibration for-
mula:

Relative concentration
This quantification method uses the internal
standard method to calculate the relative con-
centrations of the components. For this proce-
dure, a
Standard component
must be selected
