Possible reasons for no peak:
your purge valve on the pump is open
You selected the wrong wavelength
Your sample volume in vial is too low
You have air in your system (purge all lines for 5 min each)
Your method run time is too short, peak is still on column

purge valve off i'm sure. only not sample, and standard i didn't see peak. purged my system. system was high pressure. i tried analysis shimadzu system but didn't work because of high pressure. this peaks wasn't seen; because of high pressure?
