Patent ID: 8260561

Claim:
A computer implemented method of displaying chromatographic separation data, comprising: acquiring, using a separation system comprising a detector and a computer system, a first series of measurements for a first sample, wherein the first series of measurements indicates the presence of constituents in the first sample, the first sample constituents detected at a single point along the length of a channel as they move through the channel past that point; displaying, using the computer system, the first series of measurements for the first sample as a first lane comprising a first series of bands; acquiring, using the separation system, a second series of measurements for a second sample, the second sample constituents detected at the single point along the length of the channel as they move through the channel past that point; and displaying, using the computer system, the second series of measurements for the second sample as a second lane comprising a second series of bands, wherein the first lane and the second lane are displayed as a parallel set of lanes.
