Why Is the Baseline Important for Peak Measurement?

Points on why baseline important for peak measurement:

  • The baseline serves as the reference from which peak height and peak area are measured during chromatographic analysis. 
  • Accurate peak quantification depends on measuring signal intensity relative to this stable reference level. 
  • This confirms the baseline’s role as the detector’s zero-response line.
