The use of Simca Pattern Recognition in the Analysis of Complex Chromatographic Data

  • Conference paper
QSAR in Environmental Toxicology

Abstract

A technique is proposed for the quantitative determination of constituents in complex mixtures characterized by gas chromatography data. The technique is the SIMCA pattern recognition method and the data to which it is applied are gas chromatograms of the Aroclors 1242, 1248, 1252, and 1260. The problem is formulated as one of classification and a sample of used tranformer oil from a waste dump is classified as to its composition.
