Conclusions
Resample is a newChromaTOF feature that adds flexibility to GCxGC-TOFMS data processing.
New files can be created that reflect sample rate reductions, restricted retention time regions, and
narrower mass ranges. The resulting smaller file sizes speed up automated processing routines.
In addition, spectral deconvolutionmay be better due to elimination of low or highm/zmatrix ions.
When Resample is used tomatch peak widths properly to acquisition rates through the sample rate
reduction, a sensitivity enhancement can occur. Nomatter how Resample is used, the original data
file is still intact.
