Column Performance Analysis
Method runs that include the Column Performance Test phase can be analyzed for
column performance. ChromLab software analyzes the performance of the column
in use and provides quality statistics including the number of theoretical plates (N),
the number of plates per meter (N/L), height equivalent to a theoretical plate (HETP),
and the reduced plate height (rHETP). The results appear in the Column
Performance tab in the table at the bottom of the Evaluation window and in the
chromatogram.
Column Performance — Settings
When you click Analyze Column Performance on the Analysis menu, the Column
Performance pane appears to the right of the chromatogram. The default settings in
the Settings tab are used to automatically calculate various column performance
attributes. You can change the default settings and choose which quality
measurements to calculate and display in the Column Performance table.
