ABSTRACT:
In a correlated two-dimensional gas chromatography system, it is necessary to "pair" peaks from one chromatogram with respective peaks of another chromatogram. Both peaks of a pair should correspond to the same sample component. The present invention provides for confirmation/disconfirmation of pairs that may be speculative or arbitrary. A hybrid chromatographic column is designed so that the retention time of a sample component is the average of the retention times of that component in the two independent columns. Thus, a peak location in the hybrid chromatogram can be calculated for each pair of peaks. The absence of a peak at that location or the inconsistency of the area of a peak at that location disconfirms the pairing. The invention also provides for higher dimensional systems and for other separation technologies.
