Chromatograph and apparatus for determining chromatograph analysis method
To enable appropriate analysis to easily be performed in accordance with an object to be analyzed, provided is an apparatus for determining a chromatograph analysis method includes: an input portion ( 220 ) configured to receive input of a sample name of a sample to be analyzed and a component name; a storage ( 230 ) configured to store an analysis method for a component corresponding to the component name in the sample corresponding to the sample name so that the analysis method is associated with the sample name and the component name; and a controller ( 210 ) configured to search the storage for the analysis method, which corresponds to the sample name and the component name input to the input portion, to read the analysis method from the storage, and present the analysis method to a user.
1. An apparatus at a chromatograph for determining a chromatograph analysis method, which is configured to determine an analysis method for separating a component contained in a sample to detect the component through the chromatograph, the apparatus comprising:
an input portion configured to receive input of a sample name of the sample to be analyzed and a component name;
a storage configured to store the analysis method for the component corresponding to the component name in the sample corresponding to the sample name; and
a controller configured to search the storage for the analysis method, wherein the analysis method corresponds to the sample name and the component name inputted to the input portion, to read the analysis method from the storage, and present the analysis method to a user through a display portion of the chromatograph, wherein:
the input portion is configured to receive input of at least one designated condition selected from high-speed analysis, high-separation analysis, high-sensitivity analysis, and high-accuracy analysis;
the controller is configured to preferentially search for the analysis method matched with the at least one designated condition; and
the chromatograph is configured to perform an analysis operation in accordance with the searched analysis method.
2. The apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method according to claim 1 , wherein the analysis method stored in the storage includes at least one of a pretreatment method, a separation method, a reaction method, and a detection method used at a time of analysis.
3. The apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to read the analysis method from the storage using the sample name and the component name which are inputted to the input portion, wherein the searching the storage includes hits for notation variability of the sample name or the component name or both, synonyms of the sample name or the component name or both, or any combination thereof.
4. The apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to perform an associative search for related terms of the sample name and the component name input to the input portion, to thereby read the analysis method from the storage.
5. The apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method according to claim 1 , wherein the apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method is configured to present, to the user, the analysis method in which a separation degree of the component corresponding to the component name input to the input portion is a predetermined degree or more based on a chromatogram.
6. The apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method according to claim 1 , wherein the chromatograph comprises an amino acid analyzer.
7. The apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method according to claim 1 , wherein the chromatograph analyzes the sample by supplying an eluent and the sample and separates the component contained in the sample to detect the component, wherein the chromatograph includes the apparatus for determining the chromatograph analysis method.
8. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the analysis operation in accordance with the searched analysis method includes at least one of selection of a separation column and selection of an eluent.
