Sample Preparation

Sample preparation is a major part of any chromatographic analysis. It can include simple procedures such as weighing, dissolving, and diluting a sample, but also more complicated physical (filtration, centrifugation, etc.) and chemical separation procedures (liquid-liquid-extraction, fixed phase extraction). Careful preparation substantially contributes to the quality and reproducibility of chromatographic separations.

In addition, Chromeleon supports two correction factors: Sample Weight Factor (Weight) and Dilution Factor. They allow you to use the "approximate weight" and to define dilution steps. Thus, they can be used to consider sample preparation during data evaluation.
