Abstract:
1. An automated system for reducing inherent data loss associated with experimentation comprising: an automated experimentation platform (AEP) for automating one or more experimentation processes; a generalized exchange module (GEM) for automating data exchanges between said AEP and one or more target applications and for enabling the data exchange to be generic with one or more attached components including any of instrumentation, device, software application or ICP, a means for selectively predetermining study factors for said experimentation, wherein one or more unique surrogate data sets are derived from said experimentation, wherein said study factors are inclusive of one or more controllable settings or controllable parameters, wherein said controllable settings include one or more of any instrument settings, controllable features of instrumentation, variable characteristics of experimentation, processes of experimentation, or experimental factors in accordance with said experimentation, wherein said means is a software application in communication with one or more instruments of said experimentation, wherein said system includes a high-performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC), and a method of computing at least one surrogate response.
