Enhanced dataprocessing tools 
- Looking for needles in haystacks? 

State-of-the-art data processing tools combined with an extensive database of odour compounds, available from Markes, dramatically improve detection of trace compounds in complex chromatographic profiles.  The need for manual post-run analysis of GC-MS data by skilled technical staff is eliminated.  False positives and negatives are minimised even in the presence of high concentration interferences. 

Spectral deconvolution and the Markes odours database correctly identifies 18 components as being present - and also confirms that 5 compounds are NOT present
