Sample Data Processing Device for Analysis Instrument, Autosampler, Liquid Chromatograph Instrument, Sample Data Processing Method, and Analysis Method

摘要

An image capture device is installed in an autosampler and captures an image data of a rack on which one or more vials are disposed. A data processing device analyzes the data captured by the image capture device and acquires information on a position at which the vial is disposed, and sample information attached to each of the vials, in association with each other. The data processing device constructs an optimum analysis program from the acquired vial position information and sample information, and an analysis condition set and inputted by an operator via an input device. The position of the vial and the sample information can be determined in a short period of time, because the position of the vial and the sample information is determined from the image data acquired by capturing an entire image of the rack with the vials disposed thereon.
