Abstract

A method and apparatus are provided for identifying peaks in spectral data. A method in accordance with some embodiments includes sorting the spectral data by spectral parameter values; detecting peaks in the data; integrating peak areas; identifying any coeluting peaks, and combining coeluting peak areas determined to be associated with the same compound; and generating a list of detected peaks and their corresponding areas, including any combined coeluting peak areas.
