Chromatography Forum

Dear All,

In my former lab I had done some runs on Agilent HPLC instrument, and old machine (not even sure what model), with chemstation installed.

After a while it was time to leave, but we still want to analyze the results as they seemed interesting... Nevertheless, in my current lab we do not have an instrument with chemstation on it.

I was wondering whether there is a free software that I can use to read and analyze these files. They are basically .d files of HPLC-DAD data, with 4 wavelengths.

I would love to have your idea of how to solve it.

Many thanks in advance.

Tashian, I cannot speak with experience, but OpenChrom is a free software program that can read many types of chromatography files and function then like other data systems. Jim

Hi Jim,

Many thanks for the idea. I will try that, although from a quick look at their website it seems that they say "Further vendor formats, including other detector types (e.g. UV, DAD), are on our agenda for the next release".
I will give it a try and see.

Many thanks!
