Summary: | This paper present an alternative approach of High performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) online data storage method using XML for pharmaceutical research applications. XCS (XML for Chromatogram Storage) is presented, which is a module of AMCS (Automated Measurement for Chromatogram Storage), a management system designed for acquiring measured chromatography results by automated measurement and storage of multiple HPLC instruments on a centralized database. XCS is accessible through the Local Area Network (LAN) in a laboratory which is suitable for storing data. The XCS can produce XLS and CSV file formats, and can convert HPLC measurements into XML file format for centralized database storage; instead of using the proprietary software provided by the vendor or manufacturer which user can only save the measured file into the proprietary software format and unable to read it without the applications. © 2010 IEEE.
