Analyzing the Peak Purity

Use the PPA window (see Data Representation and Reprocessing  PPA: Peak Purity Analysis) to check the peak purity. The PPA window displays the 3D Field of a sample if there is a corresponding raw data file. This is the case if the 3DFIELD channel was selected for Data Acquisition.

The 3D field in the lower right-hand window section has cross-wires. With the mouse, the axes can be moved separately or together. The spectrum or chromatogram extracted along the current y and x-axis will be displayed on the left or above the 3D field.

To evaluate peak purity, use the following methods:

 Visual Check of Iso Line Plot

 PPI and PPI Match Factor

 Normalized Spectra Overlay

 Peak Inhibition via Virtual Channels

 Multiple Ratio
