Peak counting computer-simulated

A series of computer-simulated chromatograms has been generated to test the validity of a procedure derived from the statistical model for calculating the number of randomly distributed components when many of them are obscured by overlap. Plots of the logarithm of the peak count versus reciprocal peak capacity are used for this purposTI TRese plots are shown to provide reasonable estimates of the total number of components In the synthetic chromatograms.
