Abstract: A chromatogram data processing system having an impurity detector including a differential chromatogram creator, a purity curve creator and a determiner. The differential chromatogram creator calculates a differential coefficient of an absorbance spectrum with respect to wavelength at a local maximum or local minimum absorption wavelength of the target component, and creates a differential chromatogram which shows a temporal change of the differential coefficient. The purity curve creator creates a purity curve which shows a temporal change of the difference between the degree of similarity of a spectrum on the target peak to a reference spectrum and a threshold of the degree of similarity which is determined taking into account the influence of noise components. The differential chromatogram and the purity curve are displayed on a display unit in a superposed form on a wavelength chromatogram created by a wavelength chromatogram creator.

Abstract: For vector A which expresses an absorption spectrum of a target component, vector F orthogonal to vector A is designated as a filter for extracting an impurity superposed on the target component on a chromatogram. For vector I which expresses a measured spectrum obtained by a chromatographic analysis performed on a sample, the inner product of vectors I and F is defined as an index value u of the amount of impurity. If an impurity is present, a peak-like waveform appears on a graph which shows a temporal change in the index value u for the measured spectrum obtained at each point in time of the measurement. By detecting this waveform, the presence or absence of the impurity can be correctly determined. The direction of vector F may be determined so that, when vector B which expresses a spectrum of the impurity is decomposed into vector Ba parallel to vector A and vector Bo orthogonal to vector A, vector F becomes nearly parallel to vector Bo (i.e. the cosine similarity index is maximized).

Abstract: A data processing system for a chromatograph has an impurity detector including a differential chromatogram creator and a determining section. The differential chromatogram creator calculates a wavelength differential coefficient by differentiating an absorbance spectrum with respect to the wavelength at each point in time of the measurement and creates a differential chromatogram which shows a temporal change in the wavelength differential coefficient. Based on a shape of the thus created differential chromatogram, the determining section determines whether or not a peak of a target component contains an impurity. By this method, whether or not the peak of the target component contains an impurity can be determined with high accuracy, without requiring complex calculations.

Abstract: There are provided a data processing device for chromatograph and a data processing method for chromatograph which allow a peak to be desirably checked. A peak (correction target peak (P1)) whose intensity exceeds a predetermined threshold in a chromatogram at a target wavelength (?1) is corrected based on correction reference values (height (H1) and area (A1) of a peak (P11)) and a sensitivity coefficient (R=I1/I2), and the chromatogram after correction is displayed or printed. Therefore, even if the correction target peak (P1) is saturated, display or printing may be performed in a state where correction has been performed so that the chromatogram at the peak (P1) is not cut off in the middle. Accordingly, at the time of display or printing of the chromatogram, a fine peak may be prevented from becoming too small, and also the correction target peak (P1) may be prevented from being cut off in the middle, and thus the peaks may be desirably checked.
