raw concentration

Absolute concentrations (raw quantity) of the

components, calculated as

C

i

= W

i

(R

i

) / V'

Total value for the column is the sum of con-

centrations for all components.

concentration%

Normalization of concentrations for all peaks

using the NORM value entered in the

Total % for

normalization

field (default setting 100%):

C

i

% = NORM

W

i

(R

i

) /

W

i

(R

i

)

Total value for the column equals NORM for

the main table, and the sum of concentrations

in the group for the group table.

rel. concentration

Relative concentration of the component rela-

tive to the standard component, assumes con-

centration of one of the components to be

known in advance. The concentration of the

component is calculated by the formula:

C'

i

= W

i

(R

i

) / V' = W

i

(R

C

,

where V' = W

s

(R

s

) / C

s

is the effective (redu-

ced) volume of injected sample. The standard

component concentration C

s

is entered by the

user.
Total value for relative concentration column

does not include the concentration of the stan-

dard component.

rel. concentration%

Relative concentration percent differs from

con-

centration%

by exclusion of standard compo-

nent(s) from summation, so that sum of all con-

centrations (excluding standard) equals
NORM

.

Total value for the column equals NORM value

for main peak table, and the sum of concentra-

tions in the group for Group table.

index

Linear or logarithmic retention index for identi-

fied components.
Total value for the column is a weighted index

average with absolute concentration as weight.
