Value Range: |

Default: |
The default setting is zero; that is, all peaks with the width > 0 [minutes] are integrated. |

Description: |
The Minimum Width detection parameter is used as a minimum criterion defining the minimum width below which peaks are ignored during peak detection. Enable this parameter at a retention time before the start of the peak. The parameter influences peak recognition and, therefore, also the baseline. |
Function: |
The peak width is measured on the baseline. In the case of peaks not reaching the baseline, the width is extrapolated. |
Tip: |
You can hide peaks with a small area in the report without changing peak detection. To do so, in the report, select Properties on the Table menu, and then select the Reject peaks with smaller relative area than ...% check box. |
