228 Understanding Your Agilent ChemStation
10 Using the ChemStation Reports
Sequence Summary Reporting
prints the statistical trends of the analyses as graphs, whereas the Standard
Statistics selection prints only text. The selections that you make in the Items
and Limits for Extended Statistics dialog box are used only when you choose
the Extended Statistic option(s) in the Sequence Summary Parameters dialog
box.
If you choose the Standard Statistic option(s) in the Sequence Summary
Parameters dialog box, then the statistics reported are:
• retention/migration time,
• area,
• height,
• amount,
• peak width (based on the report style, see “Report Styles” on page 220)
• symmetry.
The statistic calculation does not distinguish between different calibration
levels in a sequence that uses multilevel calibration methods. This means that
the concentration-dependant items, for example, Area, Height, Amount (see
the dialog box for Items and Limits for Extended Statistics) are all taken
together, regardless of the calibration level. The Statistics for Calibration Runs
values are therefore not useful for multilevel calibration methods in
sequences.
Summary
The Summary selection will print an overview of the series of samples
analyzed and the methods used. If the Summary choice is selected together
with other Sequence Summary selections, page numbers referring to the other
parts of the sequence summary report are included. Two Summary styles are
available:
The Sample Summary tabulates details of the sample analyses run in the
sequence, with some sample information such as the sample name, data file
name, method and vial number.
The Compound Summary tabulates the sample analyses with basic
quantification results for each calibrated compound, or each peak, depending
on the type of report specified in the method.
