CHARMWARE
DATA SYSTEM (MAC)
Two Macintosh compatible software modules function
to collect both GCO and standard GCFID chromatography data. Sniff
responses are automatically indexed by Charmware to the standard
of choice. Kovats, ethyl ester indexing are both supported. Text
utilities provide user-generated odor descriptors. Data Analysis
options include joining sniff files in series for dilution analysis
(CharmAnalysis) with the Charm algorithm calculating the relative
odor potencies of responses or their relative peak heights to determine
FD values. Report options include response scaling, dilution factors,
manual and automatic odor-peak integrations and data grouping. A
sniff simulation training module is included for training perspective
analysts, sensory panelists etc.
