Tips for Improving the Process<br />

Analyzing Files<br />

Use the following guidelines to improve the <strong>SIEVE</strong> process when comparing files:<br />

2 Setting up a Procedure<br />

Analyzing Files<br />

• To improve processing speed, narrow the retention time range to the area of the<br />

chromatogram where components (for example, peptides and metabolites) have eluted.<br />

• Pick the file with the best chromatogram as the first control file, since all other files are<br />

compared to this reference chromatogram.<br />

To submit files for analysis and display initial results<br />

1. After selecting files and setting parameters, click Next on the Set Parameters window to<br />

send the raw data from the files to the ChromAlign process. For a description of the<br />

alignment process, see Appendix A, “Understanding the ChromAlign Process.”<br />

The Submit Analysis dialog box appears.<br />
