Developed exclusively by its own team of software engineers, LECO’s ChromaTOF software is uniquely designed to meet the needs of today’s laboratory professionals in the food/flavor/fragranc
e, metabolomics, environmental, and petrochemical industries.
Why Did LECO Create ChromaTOF? LECO Separation Science instruments use a combination of three different chromatographic techniques to obtain and acquire data—Time-Compressed Chromatography, Comprehensive two-dimensional GC (GCxGC), and Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry. These techniques generate more peaks in a significantly shorter time than traditional chromatography methods, however, they also result in a new set of challenges concerning peak definition and the resolution of coeluting peaks.
In order to use the amount of data collected to its full potential, LECO software engineers developed an exclusive software package for use with their instrument. ChromaTOF employs advanced True Signal Deconvolution® and Automated Peak Find algorithms, Compare and Classification functions, and a host of other easy-to-use features to extract and process the necessary data that is obtained through the use.
There are currently two versions of ChromaTOF software available for customers—ChromaTOF-
GC, designed for our Pegasus HT and 4D instruments, and ChromaTOF-HRT, designed for our LC and GC High Resolution Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometers.
