4.4.7.1 Peak Fitting with Baseline
PeakFitting-Baseline
Summary
In OriginPro, the Peak Analyzer is capable of performing multiple peak fitting with several baseline subtraction options.
There are various ways to create a baseline for your spectrum data. You can select a few anchor points and then fit them with a function. The fitting of the baseline can be done along with the peak fitting.
