About

Welcome to the documentation for hplc-py! This package provides a limited, yet robust, interface for accurate and efficient peak detection and quantification from chromatography data, specifically from High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).

Chromatography is an analytical technique which allows for quantitative characterization of a chemical mixture. While many of the technical details of HPLC are now automated, the programmatic cleaning and processing of the resulting data can be cumbersome and often requires extensive manual labor. The goal of hplc-py is to reduce this manual labor and make running of the chromatographic separation the most time-consuming step in the process.
