chromatogram
Chemical separation record
A chromatogram is the visual output of chromatography—a graph or pattern showing how a mixture separates into its component substances.
Each peak or band represents a different compound, with position indicating identity and height or area indicating quantity.
Chemists use chromatograms to analyze everything from blood samples to environmental pollutants: The chromatogram revealed traces of pesticide in the water.
