A computer-implemented method for automatic peak integration of at least one chromatogram of at least one sample is presented. The sample comprises at least one
analyte and at least one chemically related substance. The method comprises the steps of: a) retrieving at least one chromatogram of the chemically related substance and at least one chromatogram of the
analyte; (114, 116) b) evaluating the chromatogram of the chemical related substance, wherein the evaluation comprises b1) determining a
retention time (118) of the chemical-related substance and adding the
retention time of the chemical-related substance to a predetermined or predefined constant offset and / or multiplying the
retention time of the chemical-related substance by a predetermined or predefined constant factor (120), b) determining at least one initial value (117) of the
analyte retention time by determining a peak shape parameter (121) of at least one peak of the chromatogram of the chemically relevant substance, b2) determining at least one initial value (122) of an analyte peak shape parameter by determining a peak shape parameter (121) of at least one peak of the chromatogram of the chemically relevant substance; c) evaluating the chromatogram of the analyte, where the evaluation comprises c1) at least one step (124) of position determination, where the analyte retention time is determined by taking into account the initial value of the retention time of the chemically relevant substance; c2) at least one peak integration step (126) in which at least one fitting analysis is applied to the chromatogram of the analyte by taking into account an initial value of an analyte peak shape parameter and the analyte retention time, thereby determining an analyte
peak area and an analyte peak shape.
