    A new data collection system using a BBC microcomputer digitizes and stores data from chromatography instruments. This system offers interactive processing for baseline correction and peak integration, enhancing data analysis for routine users.

    Area of Science:

    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Instrumentation
    • Computer Science

    Background:

    • Chromatography, including gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), generates significant data.
    • Efficient and cost-effective data acquisition and processing are crucial for laboratory workflows.
    • Existing systems may lack flexibility or be prohibitively expensive for some research settings.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a low-cost, versatile data collection and processing system for chromatographic and similar data.
    • To enable interactive data analysis, allowing operators to refine peak integration and baseline correction.
    • To create a user-friendly interface suitable for non-expert computer users.

    Main Methods:

    • Construction of a data collection system centered around the BBC microcomputer.
