Posted - 10/09/2017 : 2:24:26 PM Greetings colleagues, I have a problem and I simply cannot find a solution myself, so I kindly ask for your assistance.
I am analyzing some DSC (diff. scanning calorimetry) data for my masters degree, therefore I must integrate many peaks to determine energy, etc.. (I have over 80 DSC scans). To do so, I must integrate a peak with a straight line as its baseline between its extremities.
From what I see there are two options to do this: First: Use the Peak Analyzer feature. Second: Use the Gadget Integrate.
Problem on First method (Peak Analyzer): During the baseline creation I cannot precisely set the anchor points values to, let's say 54 and 65, so I can have a baseline to precisely integrate this peak between this range.
Please note that I must have a reproducible procedure, that is why I cannot simply drag the anchor points to the random values that this feature allows me to.
Problem on Second method (Gadget>Integrate): Here I set the baseline to be a straight line between the integration box extremities (shown as a plot of a rectangle), that fit's perfectly my needs for a baseline. Now the problem is that once again I cannot precisely set the range of this integer. Once again all I can do is drag around the integration limits and cannot set it's values to integrate from 54 to 65, precisely.
