Revolutionary Spectral Analysis Processing
Complete Separation of Co-eluted Peaks by i-PDeA (intelligent Peak Deconvolution Analysis, patent pending)
i enables the extraction of a single peak from co-eluted peaks by utilizing differences in spectra. This new separation method
-PDeA
i
-PDeA
removes discussion of integration methods for co-eluted peaks. The also helps detect impurity peaks in a target peak.

Example 1: Remove tailing peak
Tailing peak 0.5 mg/L spiked

This peak looks a single peak. By removing the main peak, the impurity peak appears on the chromatogram!!
