Test results
Results from an efficiency test are stored and processed in a similar way as results from
a component test. The results are stored at a user-defined location, and they can be
compiled and presented in the form of a printed report using report format
AKTA ready_Column_T, which includes results from the efficiency test in addition to the
installation information in report format AKTA ready_Column.
In addition to the general information, a column test report also contains detailed infor-
mation about the column used (e.g., volume, technique, max and default flow rates, etc.).
A column test report contains a chart showing the peak in UV response caused by the
progressing pulse of tracer solution, together with suggested acceptance criteria.
Unlike a component test report, a column test report does not state whether
a column has passed or failed a test. Instead, it is the responsibility of the user
to compare the test results with provided acceptance criteria in order to decide
if the test was successful or not.
