  "term": "Chromatogram",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A visual record, typically a graph, produced by a chromatograph, showing the detector response as a function of time or volume. It consists of a series of peaks, where each peak corresponds to a separated component of the sample. The position of a peak indicates the retention time, and its area or height is proportional to the concentration of the component.",
